Tam Cốc–Bích Động (Ninh Bình, Vietnam)

#asiabudgetchallenge 📍 Destination: Ninh Bình, Vietnam 💴 Budget: ~$6 USD 💡 Travel Tip: Go early morning or late afternoon for the best light and fewer boats on the river. 📝 Tam Cốc felt like Halong Bay on land—limestone peaks rising from rice paddies and silent waterways. For just under $6, I took a rowboat through caves and rivers, surrounded by lotus fields and serenity. It's a peaceful, affordable alternative to the usual tourist route and perfect for budget-conscious travelers. #asiabudgetchallenge
