"A majestic rock formation that rises above the Tam Coc Valley and which takes its name for its resemblance to a dragon's back. In fact, a legend tells that this particular shape of the mountain was inspired by the spirit of a dragon who protected the area from enemies centuries ago. To reach the top you have to climb about 500 steps. Halfway through you will find two possible paths. I recommend to climb first the one on the right and see the view from there. But then when it's time for sunset move to the left one, because from there you will have the best view. The ticket entrance is about 8$"

"About 10 minutes driving from Tam Coc you can hike up one of the mountains you saw from the boat. To walk to the top of the mountain you need to climb nearly 500 stairs. The stairs can be challenging so take your time and in the meantime enjoy the stunning views of the area.
The entrance to Mua Cave costs 100,000 VND per person"

"are you ready to climb up some stairs? It's definitely worth it to hike up all the stairs to get on top of the limestone mountain where you'll get an amazing view all over Ninh Binh."
