The legend of Halong

When peace returned, the Jade Emperor, worried not to see the dragons back, sent a messenger who told him that the dragon mother and her children had decided to stay put. Therefore the place took the name of Ha Long (which means "descending dragon "). Here's one of the legends that explain the origin of these incredible landscapes.
