Quang Binh Overview

Quang Binh lies 300km to the north of Danang province. This is a cultural-diversified place as well as a disastrous battlefield in the resistance against the French colonialist and the American empire. Today, Quang Binh still preserves many historical and cultural relics of previous ages.

Quang Binh is home to a large number of ethnic group with multiform culture and tradition.

Possessing a 116.04 km long coastline, Quang Binh has firm foundation for development of tourism, which has been brought about great profit for the land. The province is favored with marvelous landscape with many beauty spots. Phong Nha - Ke Bang National Park is a well-known local attraction which has been recognized by UNESCO as the world natural heritage in 2003. The Phong Nha - Ke Bang complex comprises many beautiful caves and grottoes with fantastic stalactites and stalagmites. With mysterious scenery insides, the caves and grottoes have attracted many domestic as well as foreign tourists.

Besides, Quang Binh is the land for many historical-cultural relics namely Hoang Phuc pagoda, Dao Duy Tu rampart, Dong Hoi citadel, and the citadels of the Ngo, Trinh, Nguyen Dynasties. Quang Binh is also a civilized land with the cultural archaeological site of Bau Tro, Phu Luu bronze Drum, which existed in the same era as Dong Son Bonze Drum.

Besides the wonderful natural landscape, the long-standing historical relics, Quang Binh is home to many famous persons who achieved excellent results in education, military, social-cultural issues such as Duong Van An, Nguyen Huu Canh, Nguyen Ham Ninh, Vo Nguyen Giap, etc.

Quang Binh belongs to the bio-diversified area of North Truong Son - where multiform flora and fauna system has been developed with precious species. This is also an advantage for Quang Binh to develop eco-tourism.

If Quang Binh can take full advantage of the existing natural as well as cultural resources along with the preservation and development of its eco-diversity, this would be a great potential for the land to exploit. Nowadays, the number of tourists visiting Quang Binh has increased, and Quang Binh is expected to become a potential land for tourism in coming time.
