Ba Vì is a rural district on the western edge of Hanoi, where the Red river plain meets the forested Ba Vì mountain. It is a weekend escape from the capital, with resorts, farms and villages rather than an urban centre.
Ba Vì National Park covers the mountain, with forest trails, the ruins of a French hill station, and temples near the summit, including one to the mountain's guardian spirit. The district is also known for its dairy farms and fresh milk, and the ancient village of Đường Lâm lies nearby.
Central Hanoi is roughly a two-hour drive away. Buses reach the district, but a hired car or motorbike is much more practical for reaching the national park and scattered villages.
Autumn and spring are the most pleasant, with mild weather and clearer views from the mountain. Summers are hot, humid and rainy, and winters are cool, damp and often misty.
Vietnam uses the VND, calling code +84.
Vietnam uses the dong, and Vietnamese is the language, with little English spoken outside tourist resorts. Cash is useful in rural areas, and a respectful manner and modest dress are appropriate at temples.
