Quang Ninh - In the midst of the majestic space of Ha Long Bay, there is a special "outdoor geological museum" about 320 million years old.

About 30 km southeast of Tuan Chau Port, "Quintessence Stone Park" is located on sightseeing route No. 4 - a less crowded route but is considered the richest in geological and geological value. The reason this place is called "Prickton Park" is because dozens of stone islands in the area all have a unique plank structure, completely different from the familiar vertical stone formations in other areas.

Here, each mountain seems to have countless large and small rocks stacked up, forming squares, layers of layered like giant piles of books.

Although completely created by nature over hundreds of millions of years of rising - receding, sealing and breaking geology, their shape seems to have been cleverly arranged by human hands.

Thanks to the combination of unique curved and layered structures, C ranged Stone Park is considered by experts to be one of the areas that most clearly demonstrate the geological history of Ha Long Bay.

The center of the Pharks of the Steles is Hon Trang, shaped like a majestic Egyptian pyramid in the middle of the sea. The square is nearly 21 m high, made up of large, square, stacked on top of each other very clearly. Hon's feet are arranged about 7 m high in a rectangular shape, while the top 14 m rises like a triangle.

On the dark brown stone forms are endemic flowers such as female rhinopods, moss and many other plant species clinging to the stone, making the island both strong and soft, ancient and vibrant.

Thanks to its unique structure and majestic scenery, Rain stone Park is becoming one of the most attractive stops for overnight cruise ships on the bay. This is also a place to provide vivid visual documents for geotourism tours - a new type of tourism being promoted by Quang Ninh province.
