Cycling in Tam Coc

While the huge limestone karsts dominate the landscape, the rivers and nearby fields of Ninh Binh are quite flat - perfect for cycling. As there are no large trucks or cars driving on these riverside paths, it is quite safe too. Alongside Hoi An, Tam Coc is now one of the best places to cycle in Vietnam and is a popular way to get around.

We spend the afternoon visiting many lovely places including the Bich Dong Pagoda as well as cycling along the riverside where we can see sampans passing us by and along the rice fields access paths. It is very peaceful and a wonderful way to spend a few hours.
