1. The Twilight of the Day - Sunset and the Transition Moment

Sunset from the Queen Cable Car

Boarding the cabin at sunset, you will see Ha Long Bay change color minute by minute: from golden orange to deep purple . The high vantage point allows you to capture the entire panorama of the sea and islands, and the sparkling reflections of light on the water's surface.

Choose a spot facing west or near the cabin window, turn on HDR/portrait mode on your phone - you will get incredibly impressive sunset photos.

5. Notes & tips when exploring Ha Long at night

Ideal time

The period from 18:00 - 21:00 is usually when the park is most vibrant - after sunset, performances and the food area are in full swing.

Attire & preparation

Bring a light jacket due to the sea breeze at night; prepare a small flashlight or turn on your phone's flash when taking photos in dimly lit areas; if you are traveling with the whole family, choose a fixed meeting point to easily find each other at night.

The night at Sun World Ha Long is a combination of artistic lighting, lively music, and night food - a different experience from daytime, well worth adding to your Ha Long exploration itinerary.
