Binh Huong, Quang Ninh - The Beautiful and Poetic Burning Grass Season
Binh Huong peak, one of the few relatively unspoiled destinations in Quang Ninh, impresses visitors with the burning grass season every 9 months, creating a natural picture dyed with autumn yellow.
Binh Huong's grass-burning season is stunning.
Binh Huong peak, located north of Uong Bi city in Quang Ninh province, is known as "miniature Da Lat" when covered in pine forest and tall grass.
Binh Huong is known as the "Miniature Da Lat in the Heart of Quang Ninh."
The burning grass season in Binh Huong, known as the "golden season" of Quang Ninh, begins in late September and lasts until the end of October 10. The grassy field and romantic pine hill at Binh Huong peak become an appealing photographic backdrop around this time.
Visitors can watch the lawn turn yellow, just like in romantic movies.
Visitors can explore the trail in the middle of the romantic yellow grass hill, and take photos of the "lonely pine tree," or the rocks on the side of the road, in addition to the endless burning grass field.
Visitors should also try the experience of climbing to the top of the mountain, which is more than 400m above sea level. Visitors can admire the majesty of the mountains in the distance while standing on the top of Binh Huong, capturing a full view of the beautiful city of Uong Bi and the Bach Dang River.
Binh Huong Mountain is still relatively unspoiled because it is a new tourist destination in Quang Ninh. Day picnics, camping, camping, campfire parties, and sunrise hunting... are thus the most appropriate activities here.
Binh Huong Peak is surrounded by mountain ranges.
Visitors can take a bus from Hanoi to the center of Uong Bi city, Quang Ninh, for 200.00 VND. You can choose to ride a motorcycle if you want to fully enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. Once there, visitors can choose between two modes of transportation:
- Visitors who want to walk to see the scenery should take The Ba Vàng Way, which goes through the top of Thành Đẳng after Ba Vang Pagoda. This trip is about 4 kilometers long and takes about an hour and a half.
- If you are unable to climb the mountain, you can ride a motorcycle. Follow the Vàng Danh path through the Lán Tháp Bridge for about 100m, then turn into the Dong Chanh direction and look for a cloth sign that says "Entrance to Binh Huong peak." Traveling by motorcycle takes about 20 minutes, and the road up the mountain is relatively easy to navigate with no dangerous bends.
Hiking allows visitors to appreciate the beauty on both sides of the road.
Binh Huong's beauty changes with the seasons, but to fully appreciate the beauty of the burning grass season, visitors should visit between mid-September and October 10. The weather in the North is dry, cool, and less rainy at this time of year, making it much easier for visitors to move around and enjoy themselves.
