Hiking to the highest peak at Mua Cave (also known as Hang Mua) is one of the best things to do in Ninh Binh! The cave itself is not that spectacular but it’s the incredible 360-degree views from the Hang Mua viewpoint that make this a very popular place to visit. Mua Cave is located 5km north of Tam Coc village center in the Ninh Binh region. Getting around Tam Coc is really simple as you can do so on foot, on a bicycle, or rent a scooter from your choice of half a dozen rental shops in the center of town. It’s approximately a 10-minute ride on a scooter from the town center to reach the entrance to Mua Cave. Once there the entrance fee is 100k.

[LACHONG Bistro] This cafe is located at the back of Mua Cave! It is recommended as a rest area after climbing a mountain◎ The interior of the store is like a tropical country, and you can enjoy food and drinks while listening to music! This time I had watermelon juice! It was just the right amount of sweet and very delicious🍉 [Address] 6WJP+27, Ninh Xuân, Hoa Lư, Ninh Bình, Vietnam #0 yen trip

About 2 hours by car from Hanoi, we went to Mua Cave in Ninh Binh. You can see a magnificent view by climbing up the 500 or so rock steps. It's tough to climb the stairs all the way, but there are several observation decks along the way, so you can take a break while climbing. The path to the higher mountain and the lower mountain splits in the middle of the stairs, so please try to climb the higher one. There is a stone dragon statue at the top, but to get there you have to clamber over rough rocks with poor footing (just like rock climbing), so if you are strong and agile, please give it a try.

Because I went in October, the lotus pond had no flowers. Everything else was great. Experience climbing 500 steps to reach the 2 peaks (dragon peak and tower peak). In my opinion, start here at 3pm and climb up and wait to watch the beautiful sunset 🥰🥰. I will come back to Ninh Binh again.

Name of Destination: Mua Caves Ecolodge (Hang Mua) Location: Ninh Binh, Viet Nam Even though I knew climbing Hang Mua was very tiring, I was still determined to climb again, I don't know why. Maybe because of the beauty of Ninh Binh. Following the name, people think it's a cave, but it's not, it's simply a scenic spot and you have to climb stairs to get to places with such beautiful views. Climbing Mua Cave really means holding up your phone to get a beautiful picture Hang Mua has just opened a lotus pond, no need to climb but still has beautiful pictures . Another new point is that there is a landing, it looks like a cafe but actually doesn't sell anything

⛰️ Mua Caves Ecolodge ⛰️ Today, we will take you to sleep at Mua Caves Ecolodge in Ninh Binh Province, Vietnam. The accommodation is quiet because not many people know about it yet. Mua Caves Ecolodge is a very beautiful hotel. The advantage of staying here is that we can walk up to the Hang Mua viewpoint for free at any time. I jokingly asked the staff if we could go up at 8 pm. They seriously answered that we could. The door was not locked, but it was dark. ...Umm...just kidding 🤣 The staff here are very cute. They are very eager to help. Most of them are children. The room I stayed in was a Deluxe Double room for 2 nights with a bathtub. The bathroom is a mountain wall, stone bathtub. The room is big, beautiful, and very cool. Take a shower in an open, natural setting. The price per night is 2,300 baht, including breakfast for 2 people. With free access to Hang Mua Mountain Because the entrance fee is 100,000 dong per person if you are not a hotel guest. The hotel restaurant closes at 6 pm, but it is difficult to find food in the surrounding area. Because the school is in the middle of the mountain, if anyone likes nature, peace and safety, I recommend this place. The breakfast here is not a buffet and there is no refill. Order and it's done, but it's about the same as a normal person's full meal. There are drinks, main dishes, salad, fruit. It's complete with all five food groups until the headmaster has to give a shield!! .... But!!! A ghost like me is not full!! It's too little!!! Only buffet is enough. Don't you understand that breakfast is an important meal!!! So I secretly asked for more salad, more eggs, and got friendly with the staff and asked for more food all the time. Until the staff asked, "Are you a baby?".... No, no, no, just not yet. Sorry 🤣 #ninhbinh #muacavesecolodge #vietnam #hangmuacave #Vietnam #NinhBinh #MyWifeTakesMeAnywhere #VietnamTravel
