Let’s join a boat tour along more than 200km long inside Hoa Binh Lake, visitors can be conquered by the beauty of a popular tourist destination dubbed the "Ha Long Bay on land.”
When it comes to Hoa Binh province tourism, normally everyone thinks of the Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant and the Hoa Binh Lake – the plant’s reservoir which is a part of the Da River. The most familiar image of the lake is viewed from the plant’s main dam in Hoa Binh City. However, it would be a completely different experience when taking on a boat trip inside the lake to enjoy its stunning beauty along over 200km, with distinct views of the jade reservoir from the beautiful lakeside villages.

These days, offices, all roads, and residential areas in Hoa Binh province are decorated with flags, flowers, banners, hoardings, and bright slogans to welcome National Day on September 2. Below are some images captured by Hoa Binh Newspaper reporters in Hoa Binh City and some districts in the province.
Over the past three decades, Cao Phong town has leveraged its spirit of unity, dynamism, and creativity to utilise opportunities and overcome challenges, leaving significant milestones in economic and social development. The town has made substantial progress in various sectors while maintaining national defence and security.
Since the passing of Party General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong on July 19, offices and private houses in Hoa Binh city have flown flags half-mast to commemorate the Party chief.
After 30 years since its establishment (August 1st, 1994 - August 1st, 2024), Cao Phong town has made significant progress, from a mountainous agricultural town facing many difficulties to becoming the political, economic and social center of the district, aiming to build a civilized, modern urban area, which is rich in the cultural identity.
In his 14 years as the leader of the Communist Party of Vietnam, General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong visited Hoa Binh province three times. Each locality, unit, and enterprise visited by the General Secretary, and every household and wounded soldier kindly encouraged and given gifts by the late leader always remember and deeply keep in their mind the feelings of their beloved leader.
