Overview

Bac Ninh, the cradle of the thousand-year-old Kinh Bac region, is a canvas where the depth of heritage and the breath of the modern era intertwine. The serene beauty of this land of outstanding people is vividly reflected through enchanting Quan ho folk melodies, thousand-year-old sacred ancient pagodas, and renowned traditional craft villages. Alongside the nostalgic charm of the Quan ho region, modern Bac Ninh bursts with the vitality of a leading high-tech industrial hub, featuring a modern urban landscape, vibrant economic activity, and folk cuisine rich with Kinh Bac flavors. Especially for filmmakers, Bac Ninh opens up a "living studio" rich in artistic inspiration. The diversity ranging from spiritual spaces and moss-covered ancient villages to futuristic industrial mega-sets, combined with a convenient gateway location, makes this Quan ho land an unmissable, highly potential creative destination.
