(Dan Tri) - Tam Coc is located in the world heritage site of Trang An, with unique natural landscape values bestowed by nature, along with cultural and historical values.
Tam Coc tourist area is located in Ninh Hai commune, Hoa Lu district, Ninh Binh province. This place is located entirely in the core area of Trang An Scenic Landscape Complex - a world cultural and natural heritage recognized by UNESCO in 2014. Recently, the management board of this tourist area suddenly announced that it would temporarily stop receiving visitors without a clear reopening date, which surprised visitors. Many domestic and international tourists visiting this tourist area had to "turn back". Tam Coc is famous for the most beautiful rice fields in Vietnam, stretching along the poetic Ngo Dong River and along both sides of the foot of towering limestone mountains. Tam Coc is an indispensable check-in point for tourists when traveling to Ninh Binh . Coming here, visitors will experience many types of tours in one destination such as: eco-tourism; spiritual tourism; historical and cultural relic tourism; resort tourism; sports tourism, cycling, sightseeing, agricultural experiences... Tam Coc Tourist Area has many tourist attractions and areas such as: Dinh Cac - Tam Coc (Ba Hang) route; Thai Vi Temple - Thien Huong Cave... Tam Coc means 3 caves, including Hang Ca, Hang Hai and Hang Ba, all 3 caves are formed by Ngo Dong River cutting through the mountain. The most impressive and attractive time for tourists is in April and May when the rice fields are golden yellow. Tam Coc Tourist Area is considered by domestic and international tourists as a safe, friendly and hospitable destination. The image of local people rowing boats to harvest rice in the rice fields makes tourists excited. The form of production associated with tourism in Tam Coc has become an attractive highlight for international tourists for many years. During the rice harvest season, tourists can immerse themselves in the enthusiastic harvest atmosphere of local residents. June, July and August are considered the low season for Ninh Binh tourism, the number of tourists decreases. Since July 9, the Dinh Cac - Tam Coc sightseeing route, which includes sightseeing tours of mountains and rice fields by rowing boat along the Ngo Dong River, passing through 3 water caves, has suddenly stopped operating. According to the announcement of the Tam Coc tourist area management board, the temporary closure of the tourist area is to carry out conservation activities, landscape restoration, technical and material facilities improvement, and at the same time to arrange and improve management, training, knowledge and skills in welcoming and serving guests and health check-ups for workers. The closure of this tourist area until the announcement of reopening to welcome guests has made many tourists regretful because when coming to Ninh Binh, they cannot visit this "unique" beautiful scene.
