Exploring the cultural and spiritual quintessence of Kinh Bac region

Package Vietnam Tours - The Yen Tu - Vinh Nghiem - Con Son - Kiep Bac Heritage and Landscape Complex recognized by UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage has opened a new door for Bac Ninh tourism. This is not only a source of pride, but also a driving force for authorities at all levels, functional sectors and businesses to operate new tours, helping tourists experience more deeply the unique cultural and spiritual values of Kinh Bac land.

Where culture and spirituality meet

Recently, Ms. Nguyen Thi Thuong from Hanoi had a trip to the Kinh Bac heritage area. The first stop was Vinh Nghiem Pagoda, where she and other members of the group listened to the tour guide introduce the history of the pagoda and the Buddhist scripture woodblocks - a documentary heritage of the "Memory of the World Asia - Pacific" program. The quiet space, ancient pagoda roof and treasures and documents preserved here remind us of the unique spiritual and cultural values ??of the Truc Lam Zen sect founded by Buddhist Emperor Tran Nhan Tong in the 13th century.

Continuing the journey, the group visited Bo Da Pagoda - an ancient temple located on Phuong Hoang Mountain associated with the legend of a woodcutter and the Bodhisattva Quan Am appearing to save sentient beings. After moments of meditation at the Buddha's door, visitors can immerse themselves in the space of Tho Ha ancient village, experience the atmosphere of the rural market by the river, taste crab vermicelli soup, rustic rice cakes and make and dry rice paper themselves. Ms. Thuong said: "The space of the heritage site makes me feel like I'm slowing down. A day is not enough to learn and explore all the unique features of the spiritual culture of the land, so I will come back on future trips."

Vinh Nghiem Pagoda and Bo Da Pagoda are two of the 12 component relics of the Yen Tu - Vinh Nghiem - Con Son, Kiep Bac Heritage and Scenic Landscape Complex located in three provinces: Bac Ninh, Quang Ninh, and Hai Phong. This heritage complex is a sacred space, where the quintessence of Truc Lam Buddhism converges - a progressive, humane ideology, connecting religion and life, accompanying the nation through many historical periods. Immediately after the heritage was upgraded to international status, many businesses operating in the Bac Ninh tourism industry proactively linked to expand the scale, improve the quality of existing products, and design new tours to attract tourists, contributing to spreading the unique cultural values of the heritage.

Tre Viet company - one of the major units that mainly organizes short pilgrimage tours at the beginning of the year, has now boldly launched more than a dozen new products, with itineraries from 1 to 3 days, costing nearly 1 million VND to more than 3 million VND. A typical example is the 3-day, 2-night tour "Discovering Kinh Bac land - Cultural and spiritual quintessence". On the first day, visitors visit Vinh Nghiem pagoda, offer incense to pray for peace, learn about Buddhist scriptures; continue the journey to Tay Yen Tu - Dong Yen Tu, worship Hoa Yen pagoda, Dong pagoda, and immerse themselves in the majestic mountain and forest scenery. On the second day, visitors visit Con Son - Kiep Bac - a place associated with the life and career of world cultural celebrity Nguyen Trai; National hero Tran Hung Dao; Chu Van An temple... Before ending the journey, visitors visit Do temple and ancient temples with unique architecture such as: Phat Tich pagoda with a thousand-year-old Amitabha Buddha statue; Dau Pagoda, But Thap Pagoda and learn about Vietnamese Buddhism, Ly Dynasty; experience the process of making Dong Ho folk paintings.

Another attractive option is the "Heritage and Nature" tour, which takes visitors to offer incense and worship at ancient pagodas: Vinh Nghiem, Bo Da, Phat Tich, But Thap…; and visit spiritual and ecological tourist areas and destinations such as Suoi Mo, Tay Yen Tu, Bau Tien resort. Director of the company said: “We hope that in each tour, visitors will both make a pilgrimage and explore the natural scenery, craft villages, cuisine, and experience the indigenous cultural life to fully feel the soul of the heritage land”.

Dinh Anh tourism company introduces the "Heritage Journey - Kinh Bac Colors" tours connecting heritage with cultural - spiritual spaces, craft villages and cuisine to help visitors better understand the unique values ??of the land and local people. In each journey, visitors can visit relics, admire beautiful natural scenery, learn and experience the cultural colors of Tho Ha ancient village, Chu noodle village, Phu Lang pottery village, Dong Ho paintings...; enjoy Quan Ho folk songs and specialties. Recently, the Bac Ninh Center for Culture and Tourism Promotion has built a number of sample tours "Following the footsteps of the Buddha" connecting Bac Ninh - Quang Ninh - Hai Phong, suggesting businesses to flexibly implement according to the season, creating diverse products rich in identity. At the same time, the Provincial Tourism Association guides and supports member businesses to strengthen links with the government and businesses of Quang Ninh province and Hai Phong city to build and exploit attractive tours associated with exploring world heritage.

Improve the quality of tourism products

With the advantage of being the gateway to Hanoi Capital , convenient connection with Quang Ninh, Hai Phong and neighboring provinces, along with the unique values ??of the World Heritage Complex of Yen Tu - Vinh Nghiem - Con Son, Kiep Bac, Bac Ninh province identifies this as a "golden opportunity" to affirm the brand of "heritage destination" on the Northern tourism map.

To make the journey to the heritage land a profound and impressive experience for tourists, Bac Ninh province is focusing on implementing many solutions, closely connecting the government, businesses and the community. Businesses and travel agencies are increasing promotion and cooperation to design and operate quality tours.

The project "Restoring the Path of Buddhism Propagation of the Patriarchs of Truc Lam Yen Tu" has been implemented by the province since 2023, connecting dozens of typical relics and landscapes, forming spiritual tourism products of national and international stature. In the coming time, the "Following the Footsteps of the Buddha" tours will be increasingly exploited. This is a continuous tourist route, connecting the spiritual cultural space of Tay Yen Tu (Bac Ninh) - Dong Yen Tu (Quang Ninh) - Con Son, Kiep Bac (Hai Phong) and adding many more attractions and experiences along the route for tourists. Along with preserving and embellishing heritage, in the coming time, the province will strengthen links and cooperation with provinces and cities to develop inter-regional and inter-provincial tourism. According to the Bac Ninh Tourism Association, this cooperation not only expands the number of tourists but also creates opportunities for businesses to improve service quality and extend the length of stay and vacation of tourists. Currently, many businesses have designed 2-3 day tours, combining pilgrimage, exploring landscapes, experiencing craft villages, cuisine, and vacationing instead of just visiting during the day.

The newly launched tours not only better serve the diverse needs of tourists, contribute to promoting and spreading the value of heritage, but also promote community tourism, create livelihoods for craft villages and local service businesses . To make the journey to the heritage area a profound and impressive experience for tourists, Bac Ninh province is focusing on implementing many solutions, closely connecting the government, businesses and the community. Businesses and travel agencies are increasing promotion and cooperation to design and operate quality tours.

Mr Dung from Dinh Anh company said: "Along with designing reasonable and attractive tour schedules, the company focuses on training and fostering a team of tour guides who are knowledgeable about heritage; upgrading means of transportation; cooperating with destinations to add utilities and improve service quality". Some businesses promote the application of digital technology in propaganda and promotion to help tourists easily look up information and book tours online. Businesses hope that the province will continue to attract investment in building modern and synchronous accommodation, entertainment and recreation infrastructure such as: standard hotels, restaurants, homestays, forming shopping - culinary - night entertainment complexes; upgrading roads, expanding parking lots... near relics and scenic spots, helping tourists have complete and impressive journeys.

Community tourism takes off in Thoi Son islet

Vietnam Excursions - Thoi Son Islet, also known as Con Lan, is a famous garden eco-tourism destination in Dong Thap province that is increasingly attracting a large number of visitors.

Currently, Thoi Son Islet welcomes approximately 1,000 tourists every day for sightseeing and vacation. Here, visitors can visit fruit gardens, experience boating on the river, ride horse-drawn carriages on country roads, enjoy Mekong delta specialties, and learn about the culture and life of local people. Thoi Son Islet is on the roadmap to implement a community tourism project in the form of a value chain associated with local typical products and the OCOP program.

According to the development plan, each community tourism cluster will exploit the existing advantages of the locality to build tourism products with experiences and the identity of the river region. Specifically, in Thoi Thanh hamlet, 9 households will provide products such as: visiting grapefruit gardens, rowing boats, camping, staying, organizing outdoor parties, enjoying local specialties (snail hotpot with fermented rice, mussel pancakes, Banh Khot...), along with folk experiences such as making toys from coconut leaves, archery, lucky draw, processing honey and folk wine.

In addition, 11 households in Thoi Binh hamlet will develop tourism products with typical Western characteristics such as: visiting and experiencing grapefruit gardens, coconut gardens, producing grapefruit jam, grapefruit tea, sticky rice wine, weaving mats, weaving water hyacinth baskets, listening to traditional music, and resort and accommodation services that are about to open.

The development of tourism clusters in Thoi Son ward is oriented to closely link with the development of OCOP products , creating a sustainable connection between local products and tourism services. At the same time, through the form of organization according to value chain clusters, each household does not only provide a single service but will link and support each other to form a closed tour route, increasing the attraction for domestic and foreign tourists. Currently, Thoi Son islet has 2 national bridges, Rach Mieu 1 and Rach Mieu 2 bridges. This is a favorable condition for the development of the tourism industry.

Director of Long Son Hotel which is investing in a community tourism site in Thoi Binh Hamlet, Thoi Son Islet, said: "Thoi Binh Hamlet is a new chain of community tourism sites with many participating households. There are households doing business in weaving mats, growing mushrooms, visiting grapefruit gardens, fruit gardens, leaf paste, and coconut products. Households here make use of what is available in their gardens, for example, if they have jackfruit, they make ingredients from jackfruit, durian pancakes, grapefruit, they make grapefruit tree cakes, longan bird's nest tea, grapefruit tea, mainly making use of the fruits that the garden has."

Thoi Son Islet is one of the four sacred-animal islands: Dragon, Unicorn ( Dong Thap Province ) and Turtle, Phoenix (Vinh Long Province).

The first double-decker train in Hanoi to depart on August 19

Vietnam Railways Corporation (VNR) announced that from August 19, 2025, the unit will launch The Hanoi Train, also known as the "Hanoi 5-gate" train. The train is designed with 10 cars, 2 floors, each car named after a familiar gate of Hanoi. Footprint Travel

This is an activity to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the August Revolution and National Day September 2. Currently, the units are rushing to complete the work in time to put the train into operation on schedule. Currently, Vietnam Railways has not opened ticket sales for this journey.

The Hanoi Train consists of 10 double-decker carriages, appearing for the first time in Vietnam. Of which, 5 passenger carriages are designed with themes related to 5 famous gates in the history of Thang Long - Hanoi: Quan Chuong Gate, Cau Den Gate, Dong Mac Gate, Cau Giay Gate and Cho Dua Gate.

In the initial phase of operation, 7 trains will be put into operation with 3 trips/day, departing from Hanoi station, passing through Long Bien station, Gia Lam station, Yen Vien station, Tu Son station (Bac Ninh) and returning to the starting point. Fixed departure times include: 8:00 am; 2:00 pm and 8:30 pm.

The interior space of the train has a classic and modern feel, with large windows that open wide so that passengers can admire the scenery of the capital from a different perspective. The design of the train cars aims to combine transportation with the needs of resting, experiencing culture and taking photos, suitable for the tastes of locals and tourists.

In the coming time, the train is expected to add restaurant cars and coffee cars, gradually forming a closed tourism ecosystem on the rails.

Different from traditional means of transport , "The Hanoi Train" is positioned as a mobile cultural space, where passengers can participate in musical activities, mini exhibitions, interactive conversations, and experience Hanoi memories through a modern approach.

Integrating cultural elements into public transport activities is not a new model in the world, but is still quite new in Vietnam. The Hanoi Train can be seen as a positive stepping stone, opening up a feasible direction in preserving urban heritage associated with modern social activities.

Previously, on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification Day, VNR also organized a pair of trains named "Reunification Train", as a meaningful journey, contributing to arousing national pride, solidarity and aspiration for national development.

Con Dao island and wordless stories

Located off the coast of Vietnam's Southern region, Con Dao archipelago consists of 16 large and small islands, about 185 km from Vung Tau and 230 km from the center of Ho Chi Minh City. Once known as “hell on earth” during the American war, this place is associated with the resilient struggles of Vietnamese soldiers. Today, Con Dao is a unique destination, combining historical depth and pristine beauty, considered a “resort paradise”, attracting a lot of international tourists. Asiatica Travel

Con Dao possesses beautiful pristine beaches with clear water, fine white sand, rich primeval forests and diverse ecosystems. This place was once in the "top 10 most charming islands on the planet" voted by Lonely Planet travel magazine, top 4 most attractive new destinations in the world ranked by Time Out magazine. Visiting in the summer, I had the opportunity to explore the pristine beauty of Con Dao's sea and sky, learn about sea turtle conservation activities and visit historical sites.

Not noisy, not bustling, Con Dao attracts me by its endless wild beauty. Waking up early, I crossed the coastal road to Mui Tau Be - about 8 km from the center of Con Dao - the ideal place to welcome the sunrise.

In the space surrounded by the ocean, the sun like a red coal slowly rose behind the horizon, each ray of sunlight gilded the sparkling sea. Sitting on the cliff, I was immersed in the peaceful scene, silently watching the boats return to shore after a night of fishing, enjoying the rare fresh air.

On the way back, I stopped to explore the trekking route up to Lo Voi Mountain. From the foot of the mountain on Co Ong Street, it takes about 30 - 45 minutes to walk on the paved road to the top. From here, visitors can see the whole view of Con Dao special zone, the blue Con Son Bay and the islands looming offshore.

After breakfast by the sea, I continued my journey to explore Con Dao National Park. Buying tickets at the gate, passing through the cool forest canopy, I stopped by the Duc Me (Mother of God) cave, the heritage Nhoi tree, and then followed the path leading down to Bang beach. Hidden behind the forest, Bang beach appeared with deep blue sea water, clear bottom, clouds and sky reflecting to create sparkling green silk strips. I freely swam among schools of small fish, enjoying the feeling of owning a private beach. Not far away is Dat Tham beach - a beach that was once rated by Independent Magazine (UK) as one of the 10 pristine and environmentally friendly beaches in Southeast Asia. If you are lucky, you will have the opportunity to see some typical creatures here such as white gargoyles, Con Dao black squirrels, long-tailed monkeys...

If you are a photography enthusiast, do not miss the experience of checking in with an airplane at Dam Trau beach - about 15 km from the center of the island. To "hunt" for unique photos, visitors should follow the flight schedule on the application to capture the moment the plane lands close to the sea. This beach is also the most beautiful sunset viewing spot in Con Dao, where the yellow sky gradually melts into the calm ocean.

Arriving in Con Dao in the summer, I decided to spend a whole day and night exploring Hon Bay Canh, learning about the reproduction and conservation of sea turtles. Every year, from April to November, hundreds of mother turtles return to Con Dao National Park to breed, mainly at Hon Bay Canh, Hon Cau and Hon Tai islands.

At night, there was only the sound of waves lapping the shore and the rustling sound of mother turtles crawling up the beach. They dug nests with their hind fins and laid hundreds of opaque white eggs, the size of ping pong balls. Turtles are very sensitive to noise and light, so my group and I had to keep absolutely quiet and observe from a distance as instructed by the rangers.

While the turtles are breeding, rangers take the opportunity to measure their size, attach tags, and record information. After laying eggs, the turtles cover their nests and create a fake hole for camouflage. Turtle conservation is strictly enforced because only 1 in 1,000 baby turtles survive to adulthood.

The sky of Con Dao at night is crystal clear. There is no light pollution, so I can admire the mysterious galaxy with thousands of stars. I lie on the sand, feeling life moving right next to me, quietly but very strongly.

The next morning, I went with the rangers to the beach to release baby turtles back into the ocean. The one-day-old turtles toddled toward the waves, carrying with them the mission of survival. About 20 years later, if they survived, they would return to this very spot to continue their birth cycle, as a silent promise to the ocean.

Before returning to the big island, my group spent time diving, admiring the colorful coral reefs, swimming with the rock herds in the clear water of Hon Bay Canh island.

Back to painful history

Amidst the poetic beauty of Con Dao’s sea and sky, few people would have guessed that this place was once a “hell on earth” for nearly a century. Spending a day visiting the red addresses, I felt like I was going back in time to the war, touching the tragic historical memories of the nation.

Built by the French in 1862, Con Dao prison once held tens of thousands of political prisoners. The prison system spanned famous sections such as Phu Hai, Phu Tuong, Phu Binh, French-style tiger cages and American-style tiger cages. Each place bore the mark of brutal torture, failed escapes and the indomitable will of the Vietnamese soldiers.

Visiting Phu Hai prison - the oldest prison - I looked at the intact vestiges with prison cells, iron chains, dark cells, rice mills... Under the island sunlight, each rusty door, each mossy wall, each small window seemed to tell the story of the harsh prison years. Going deeper into the French tiger cage area - a special detention system consisting of cells with solid iron bars above, including an area without a roof - made me shiver, feeling sorry for what the previous people had gone through.

Historical relics remind me of the value of peace. Visiting Hang Duong Cemetery, I burned incense before the grave of Vo Thi Sau, my heart was silent among the forest of tombstones lined up in straight rows. Each name, each age printed on the stone is a part of history.

The night in Con Dao was strangely quiet. In the dim light of hundreds of candles and half-burning incense, I felt small among the layers of spirits. The trip was not only a journey to discover a beautiful, wild island, but also a touching encounter with history, from which I walked more slowly, became more grateful and loved my country more.

Visit Hung Yen and admire the beautiful ancient stone bridge in Nom village

Coming to Nom village, visitors can immerse themselves in a complex of ancient relics including the village gate, well, communal house yard, Nom pagoda, Nom market, ancient houses and most uniquely, an extremely special heritage - "Nom Bridge", from which to find a peaceful, rustic space imbued with the ancient Northern countryside. Vietnam Impressive Travel

The stone bridge of Nom village is like a symbol of the people of Nom village, almost all the folk songs and proverbs about the old Nom village are symbolized by this bridge. Not only does it have unique historical, cultural and architectural values, this over 200-year-old stone bridge is considered by researchers to be a unique intact structure never seen in any ancient village of the Red River Delta.

Following National Highway 5 from Hanoi to Hai Phong about 30 kilometers is Nom village, located in Dai Dong commune, Van Lam district, Hung Yen province. A prosperous ancient village with a unique complex of historical and cultural relics that still retains the ancient features of a Vietnamese village.

Located more than fifty kilometers from the once famous Pho Hien (Hung Yen city), passing through new roads interspersed with red dusty dirt roads, you can enjoy the intimate space of the ancient village that has been peacefully lying here for hundreds of years. Coming to Nom village, visitors can immerse themselves in a complex of ancient relics including the village gate, well, communal house yard, Nom pagoda, Nom market, ancient houses and most uniquely, an extremely special heritage - "Nom Bridge", from which to find a peaceful, rustic space imbued with the character of an ancient Northern countryside village.

Nom Bridge is a stone bridge across the Nguyet Duc River, a unique highlight that brings special attraction to the pure Vietnamese cultural space of the village. Not only does it have unique historical, cultural and architectural values, the nearly 200-year-old ancient stone bridge of Nom village has been evaluated by heritage researchers as a unique intact structure never seen in any ancient village of the Red River Delta.

In the 16th century, this bridge was made of ironwood. To ensure the safety and convenience of people traveling, during the reign of Tu Duc (1848-1883), the bridge was completely replaced with stone. The bridge surface is nearly 2m wide, made of monolithic green stone, perfectly fitted together. The large stone slabs were meticulously carved by artisans. Many researchers of the village are amazed at the beauty and durability of this bridge.

The bridge is only over 1 meter wide but is still a place where villagers travel every day. The bridge was built with 9 spans, according to the ancients' concept, the number 9 symbolizes luck and fulfillment. The foot of the bridge is made of cylindrical, uneven stone pillars roughly carved to support the bridge beams. The bridge beams are rectangular. Although time has made the bridge covered with moss and vines, the delicate ancient patterns of the bridge are still easy to observe. Each bridge beam is supported by three stone pillars. The stone outcrops of the bridge beams are carved with quite sophisticated cloud patterns. This is a type of motif often used to decorate ancient architecture, symbolizing good luck and blessings. The bridge abutments were reinforced in 1942 with concrete.

The special feature in the construction of the Nom village stone bridge is that the bridge deck, bridge girders and bridge legs only rest on each other without any connecting materials such as mortar or screws like modern bridges. However, after two centuries of existence, the bridge is still stable. That shows that the design, material processing and bridge construction skills of the ancient workers are very admirable. Today, hundreds of people and vehicles still cross the bridge every day. 

Crossing the 9-span bridge on the 200-year-old blue stone slabs over the Nguyet Duc River, the road leads to Nom Market. Today's Nom Market no longer has the image of the blacksmith under the banyan tree, the old lady chewing betel next to the hand-woven baskets and trays. However, the yin-yang tiled roofs, the market stalls under the slanted red brick walls still make us feel like we are going back in time to decades ago.

The stone bridge not only connects the two banks to help people, it is not only a traffic construction but also a unique highlight that brings special attraction to the pure Vietnamese cultural space of Nom village. Crossing the stone bridge, stepping into the ancient village to see all the lifestyle, living habits, culture, and national soul of a simple countryside in the Northern Delta...
