Description
The 4-star Morning Star Hotel, Tuan Chau
Island's newest hotel is prominently located on a Tuan Chau
Island hillside. Each of its 106 luxurious and comfortable rooms
and suites has its own special magnificent and romantic view of
Halong Bay.
Amongst 1,969 islands and islets in Halong Bay - has twice been
designated a World Natural Heritage Site by UNESCO, Tuan Chau is
one of the most beautiful islands and it is the only one that is
inhabited.
With a total land area of 710 hectares, and a population of
about 2000 people, the island is convenient for both
transportation on road and by sea. Besides the very easy access
to the famous World Heritage Halong Bay by boat, to get to
Hanoi, it only takes 3 hour by car (highway 18A linking Hanoi,
Hai Phong and Quang Ninh) or 2 hour by car (new highway Bac Ninh
Pha Lai). To get to the bustling trading border province of Mong
Cai, it only takes 4 hour by car or 2 hour by hydrofoil. From
Tuan Chau to Hai Phong, the important seaport city of the north,
it only takes 1 hour by hydrofoil or 1hour and a half by car.
Tuan Chau Island's name is derived from the two words “linh tuan”
(the patrol man) and “tri chau” (district chief) since in the
feudal times the royal army set up a guard station here to
patrol and defend the borderland. Prior to 1999, the Island's
residents suffered from a very modest living standard. There was
no power network and no clean water. Roads were only trails and
there were no mechanical means of transportation. Tuan Chau was
a very poor town where fishing with very rudimentary tools was
the primary means of making a living.
