Hello everyone. Welcome to Trang An Scenic Landscape Complex. My name is Thanh and
I'm your guide for this tour.
First, let me give you some quick facts. Trang An became the first site in Viet Nam to be
recognized by UNESCO as a mixed World Heritage Site in 2014. It's famous for its beautiful
landscape and long cultural history. The site consists of three protected areas: the Hoa Lu
Ancient Capital, the Trang An-Tam Coc-Bich Dong Scenic Area, and the Hoa Lu Special-
Use Primary Forest. These areas are linked together by limestone mountains, valleys, and
rivers. Trang An ecosystem has more than 600 types of plants and 200 types of animals.
Trang An is also a place where nature meets culture. Evidence from the caves that we'll visit
today shows how early humans interacted with the natural environment to deal with climate
change over a period of 30,000 years. The site also contains hundreds of temples and historic
pagodas dating from different historical periods.
As you'll see, the site is a place of natural beauty and wild scenery that has not been changed
or damaged by human activities. There is a long history of protection of the area and most of
the site is still in its natural state. For example, the architecture of the pagodas and temples is
kept in its original style. Any work to preserve, protect, and promote the area is planned
carefully.
