Halong Bay ranked as one of the world’s natural wonders
Halong Bay has been ranked as one of the 150 most beautiful natural wonders in the world by the French leading e-magazine, L’Internaute. An article portraying Halong Bay – a world natural heritage, was published in September in the Voyager (tourism) column of L’Internaute magazine.
The article noted that apart from its thousands of charming islands and beautiful caves, Halong Bay is also home to a wide biodiversity that includes eco-systems like mangrove forests, coral reefs and tropical forests.
The bay, which was twice recognised by UNESCO for its landscape and geological value, has advanced to the final stage of a campaign to vote for the world’s seven new natural wonders by the NewOpenWorld. It currently ranks 4th out of the 28 successful landscapes in terms of votes. Vietnam is making an effort to promote and preserve the bay in a bid to encourage the community, especially friends across the world to vote for it.
