Bac Ninh - the land of Kinh Bac rich in cultural traditions - has long entered poetry through Hoang Cam's "Ben kia song Duong" or poet Nguyen Phan Hach's "Lang Quan Ho" and recently continued to attract attention with the song "Bac Bling".
This is also the homeland of Bac Ninh Quan Ho folk songs, which was recognized by UNESCO as a Representative Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2009, contributing to the special attraction of this land.
Only about 30 - 40 km from Hanoi, Bac Ninh is an ideal destination for short trips. Bac Ninh 2-day 1-night tour is therefore becoming an attractive choice for tourists who love cultural and spiritual experiences.
