A thick blanket of fog lingers on limestone islets in Na Hang Lake. The area has been dubbed the ‘Ha Long Bay of the hills’ with 99 mounts. |

Visiting the area in the early morning, tourists will feel as they are wandering in a paradise on earth as mounts and limestone islets are covered by a thick blanket of fog. Tourists can take a boat trip and wander about admiring the pristine and mysterious beauty of the Pac Ta and Coc Vai Pha mounts. |

Na Hang is a spot for tourists to escape bustling city life. According to articles about the place, the Na Hang primeval forest in the Tat Ke – Ban Tung Nature Reserve has many thousand-year-old trees. The Tat Ke – Ban Tung Nature Reserve helps protect the Na Hang power plant lake and regulate flood water in the lower section. |
