I want to go to this place


I'd hire a boat and a local guide and spend a week just poking round all the caves.

its a bit more touristy than the above picture lends to... as is the majority of China.... unfortunatley.

it's not that much quieter...
...unfortunately as with the whole of SE Asia, you have to put up with a lot of gap year hoons being disrespectful and annoying.

still very beautiful though.

Halong Bay
In 2007 I was lucky enough to have 3 days on a junk in Halong Bay with my beautiful Taiwanese then-gf and a bunch of Israelis who were completely mad having just finished their national service. Quite touristy, boats queue up to enter some of the bays, but after 3 weeks working in Hanoi, the noisiest place in the world, it was great. One ticked off my list.
