4.0The scenery was majestic. The hike up stairs exhilarating, view of valley landscape beautiful. The grounds were also lovely with acres of l think lily ponds, green and colorful. Places to sit and enjoy. Wish we had more time. Lunch was good. The small boat ride through the caves and among the mountains was also great.
Great Ninh Binh tour
