When Wendy visited Halong Bay for the first time in 2016, she was in a hurry and did not spend the night on the cruise. She could only take a boat from the cruise ship pier on Tuanzhou (Qinzhou) Island. After visiting the Amazing Cave, we quickly ended the journey of Halong Bay. In 2017, I took the Vietnam Airlines (Vietnam Airlines) to spend the night in Hanoi. The next day, I went to the boat hotel in Halong Bay to spend the night. I can finally easily visit the well-known scenic spots in Halong Bay, and the hole is about 1 km away from Surprise Cave. Its special natural terrain landscape, even if it only travels back for a short time, is very impressive.
The geographical location and environment of Halong Bay
Halong Bay in Quang Ninh Province, Vietnam, has 1,969 islands with karst terrain. Hang Luồn is located on Bo Hon Island (Bo Hon). Some people call this place Moon Lake, which can convey the characteristics of this place. Hang Luồn/Hang Luon is not far from the name of Hang Luồn/Hang Luon. It is not far from Titov Island and Surprise Cave. They are also three classic attractions arranged by cruise ships.
The geographical feature of this attraction is that it is an island terrain surrounded by rock reefs. It relies on a cave connected to the sea to become a seawater lake. If there is no cave connected to the sea, this place will be an island valley or freshwater lake terrain. Looking down from the top, it is also quite vivid to call it Moon Lake. There are often groups of monkeys on the annular rock wall. This is another highlight.

▲ Tour boat hotels in Halong Bay will be equipped with a multi-functional boat that combines connection, supply, sightseeing, and lifesaving.

Hang Luon Halong Bay Pier Cruise Experience
Hang Luon (Hang Luon) is a classic must-visit attraction in Halong Bay. The cruise fee here is divided into two types: speedboat and small wooden boat. Speedboat is 10-12 VND/person, and small wooden boat is 3 VND/person. , You can also rent a kayak and paddle to visit the cave by yourself. As for the tour experience brought by the time of the visit, it really depends on luck. Sometimes it is crowded and lively, and there are also groups of people. Monkeys can sometimes enjoy the pure tranquility.
The ticket office of the pier in front of Chuandong specially set up an announcement stating the standard price of cruise fees. It also reminds many people that Chuandong will be called Moon Lake, and Titov Island is called Paradise Island/Shenxian Island/Qiguan Island, to defraud additional cruise fees. , I think the difference in name is just a difference in translation. The point is that if you have purchased a full tour ticket at Tunzhou Wharf, or if you have overnight accommodation on the ship, these costs are already included.
We went to the cave early in the morning this time. After passing through the cave, we truly realized the so-called "unique cave sky" artistic conception, as if we came to a peaceful lake surrounded by mountains, but it was actually a perfect barrier by a pinnacle. The terrain of the bay. At that time, there were no monkeys in groups or other cruise ships. What I enjoyed was the tranquil atmosphere like a paradise. When we were about to leave, we saw many lively ships coming in one after another. Coming in groups, it is another very different lively scene.
