Hạ Long, Industrial port city in Quảng Ninh, Vietnam.
The city of Hạ Long extends for 50 kilometers along the northern Vietnamese coast, incorporating 21 urban wards and 12 rural communes.
The region transformed from a small fishing settlement into a major coal mining center during French colonial rule in 1883, leading to rapid urban development.
Local fishermen maintain traditional floating villages in the waters near Hạ Long, practicing centuries-old fishing methods and aquaculture techniques.
The city connects to Hanoi through a 160-kilometer highway network, while maintaining maritime links through its industrial port facilities.
The merger of Hòn Gai with Bãi Cháy in 1993 created the current administrative structure of Hạ Long, establishing it as a first-class provincial city.
