Mua Cave - must see destination in the North of Vietnam
Mua Cave in the northern province of Ninh Binh has been popular to domestic and foreign visitors thanks to the picturesque scenery of the surrounding area seen from its top.
The site surpassed other renowned spots in Ninh Binh like Trang An, Tam Coc – Bich Dong or Bai Dinh pagoda to be is listed among top five must-see destinations in the province by international tourism website TripAdvisor.
The Mua Cave Complex - an area composed of intricate cave systems and limestone mountains – is located at the foot of Mua mountain within the eco-tourism area of Ninh Xuan commune in Hoa Lu district.
In the centre of the complex is a crystal moss-green coloured human-made lake, surrounded by rows of trees.
Legend has it that the Tran Kings used to visit the area to watch the imperial maids sing and dance, giving the area its name, Mua or ‘dancing’.
There is a rocky hill dotted with nearly 500 steps leading to the top. A winding road running around the mountain leads to the top, which is covered in towers, making it look like a miniature Great Wall. Two sides of the road are decorated with sophisticated stone statues of dragons and phoenixes that were built in the Tran Dynasty (1225-1400)’s artistic style.
