Sun World Halong Complex: The Complete Guide
With an extensive list of recreational amenities, Sun World Halong Complex has become a must-go attraction for tourists to Halong Bay.
Overview
Located in the center of Halong City, Sun World Halong Complex is a new addition to the Halong Bay’s top attractions since 2017. It is praised as the leading entertainment hub of northern Vietnam with a world-class gaming system and an abundance of recreational activities for all ages. The theme park sprawls across 214 ha and comprises 3 major areas: Queen Cable Car & Mystic Mountain, Dragon Park, and Typhoon Water Park.
Best time to go
Sun World Halong Park is best to visit from May to September as you can experience all the games without much effects of the weather. However, on all Saturdays and Sundays in May, June, and July, entrance tickets for Dragon Park, Typhoon Park, and the combo will incur an additional charge of 50.000 VND. If you travel during this peak season, just expect a surge in domestic travelers visiting the park when the SUMMER school holiday begins.
During winter time from October to April, the Typhoon Water Park is closed for maintenance so visitors cannot enjoy water activities. (This maintainance was finished)
