Administered nationally from Hanoi, and managed domestically by provincial departments, they range in space from 7,300 hectares (Ba VI, in Ha Tay Province, close to Hanoi) to 58,200 hectares (Yok Don, in the Central Highlands Dak Lak Province,). Practically all have tourism potential; however some are extra advanced than others.

 

Cuc Phuong National Park (Ninh Binh Province, near Hanoi)
