Located in Ninh Xuan commune, Hoa Lu district (Ninh Binh), Hang Mua has become a familiar destination for both domestic and foreign tourists in recent years. The climbing journey begins with a small stone road behind the lotus pond; the higher it is, the clearer the scenery.

The entrance to the top of Hang Mua is designed with stone in the shape of a billion, including 486 stone steps, divided into two main branches: a shorter right branch, leading to a point with an ideal height for sightseeing; a longer left branch takes visitors to the area where the dragon and Buddha statues are placed.
After about 30 - 45 minutes of climbing the mountain, visitors will reach the highest point of Hang Mua. This is a location that can take in all the scenery of the heritage area: Ngo Dong River, golden rice fields, large lotus ponds and typical limestone mountain ranges of Ninh Binh.
On the top of the mountain, the stone dragon statue was built simulating the image of a mascot in folk beliefs. Below the dragon statue is a Buddha statue, creating a sacred feeling in the space of the mountain and the dense forest.
The air on the top is often cool and fresh in the early morning or late afternoon, very suitable for resting, taking photos, or simply watching the transformation of nature under the sunlight.

What to prepare before trekking Hang Mua?
For the trekking journey at Hang Mua to go smoothly and safely, visitors need to pay attention to some basic things before departing. First of all, you should choose a compact outfit that is easy to move throughout the climbing process. A pair of sturdy, soled sneakers is an indispensable item, because the course can become slippery on foggy or light rainy days.
