Vietnam, a land of scenic landscapes, is also a highly spiritual place. And the province of Bac Kan, with the soul-stirring region of Ba Be, is a perfect example of this. Here, tourism takes on a sacred dimension, inviting an inner journey as much as cultural discovery.

Why Bac Kan? Imagine ancient temples nestled in lush green settings, ancestral legends whispered by the locals, and traditional festivals where souls unite. It's the promise of an authentic experience, off the beaten path.

Among the spiritual gems of Bac Kan, the Thach Long Pagoda, or "Stone Dragon Pagoda", located in Cao Ky, is remarkable for its unique location. Its entrance evokes the open mouth of a dragon leading into a vast natural cave. Linked to a legend from the Lý Dynasty, it even played a strategic military role over the centuries. Today, it is a living place of worship where people pray for luck and peace, and its annual festival attracts many visitors.

The Tham Temple, in the Cho Moi district, bears the imprint of a unique spiritual evolution. Initially dedicated to the deities of the mountains and water, it now honors a heroic female general, Mrs. Tham, who fought against the Black Pavilions. Its legend, combining a miraculous stone and the courage of a young woman, captivates visitors.
