Thinking you'd like to explore further afield? Northern Vietnam features many other things to see. Photographers will love Northern Vietnam's rural landscapes. Or, visit the region's traditional villages and old towns. More active visitors might also try mountain biking and rock climbing in this part of Vietnam.

If enjoying sport gives you an adrenaline buzz, be sure to take a trip to My Dinh National Stadium, which is 90 kilometres to the north of Hoa Lu. The Riverside Hanoi Hotel and the Somerset Hoa Binh Hanoi are near all the action.

Visitors planning on flying via Cat Bi Airport can book a room at the AVANI Hai Phong Harbour View or the Sea Stars Hotel, which are both nearby.
