Today, there are four major villages in Halong Bay and this is their story. Infact, 2 fishing villages were formed in the early 19th century. Called Giang Vong and Truc Vong, they started due to continuous sea level rise. As people who live on land, people have built houses on boats, keeping their ancestral shrines on land. When they need to discuss local politics, they simply anchor and keep them. From 1946 to 1954, during the war against France, these men scattered all over the bay, eventually returning to build their new floating village when the last area stabilized. The descendants of the villagers now live in the four main villages today: Cua Van; Vung Vieng; Cong Dam and Ba Hang.
