On the morning of the fifth day, they visit Huong Tich Pagoda and travel back to Ninh Binh, northern provinces and Hanoi in the afternoon.

The "One Journey - Four Localities - Many Experiences” tour has been highly recommended by tourism industry leaders, travel businesses, and tourists.

I realize that this tour has many potentials, because tourists in Hanoi and other big cities are increasingly interested in discovering the beauty of nature and returning to the roots of history. The connection between these destinations will create many interesting things, satisfying the needs of tourists. The localities should implement this tour soon to achieve the desired results.
