UK cruise liner visits Halong - Vietnam Travel

Nearly 1,900 international tourists were aboard the Arcadia, the second largest cruise ship in the British owned P&O cruise fleet when it docked in Halong on March 15.

This is a five-star luxury liner and the biggest one ever to visit Halong.

The re-opening of many international sea lanes such as Bac Hai- Halong, Hong Kong- Halong is due to the popularity of Halong-Quang Ninh as destination for international visitors.

Since the beginning of this year Quang Ninh has welcomed more than 1 million tourists despite the current global economic recession, 4% higher than the same period last year.
