An Ma Temple
According to local legend, during the wars between the Le and Mac dynasties, Mac generals who were defeated fled to Puong Cave and eventually sacrificed themselves there.
Moved by their loyalty and courage, local people built a temple to worship the Mac family. However, fearing that the temple would be destroyed by Le dynasty troops, they changed its name to An Ma Temple.
In the Tay language, “An Ma” means “a peaceful grave and a beautiful resting place,” referring to the final resting place of the loyal Mac generals.
Ba Goa Island (Widow's Island)
A small and charming island located in the heart of Ba Be Lake. The island is closely associated with the local legend about the formation of Ba Be Lake.

IMPORTANT NOTE
Currently, Hanoi restricts vehicles with more than 16 seats from operating in certain areas of the Old Quarter during passenger pick-up and drop-off hours. In addition, on weekends, several streets in the Old Quarter are closed to all vehicles for the weekend pedestrian walking street.
Therefore, depending on actual traffic and local regulations, the tour operator will drop passengers off at Hanoi Opera House or a nearby designated location.
We sincerely appreciate your understanding.
