Legend
Bai Tu Long Bay is also associated with stories from ancient times when Vietnam was attacked by its invaders. Thus, Emperor Jade sent Mother Dragon and her children to help the Vietnamese. After the invaders were defeated, she decided to make their home in the bay due to falling in love with the peaceful seascape.
Therefore the place where Mother Dragon descended is now called Halong Bay, while Bai Tu Long Bay is where the young dragons descended. Bai Tu Long is somehow more stunning and attractive than its neighbor thanks to its natural beauty and special legend.
