Phong Nha has top ‘incredible cave'

hanoi travel agency - Phong Nha National Park has been voted as one of the most incredible cave sites in the world by the multi-award winning Wanderlust – a leading magazine for adventurous and authentic travel.

 

Situated in the heart of Quang Binh Province in north-central Viet Nam, 500km south of Ha Noi, Phong Nha is "a fossil-rich site and a location where new caves are still being discovered", the magazine writes. See: hanoi tourist

It notes that the entrance to the 44.5km, nine-cave system is via an underground river that connects with the Son River. Tour boats can penetrate inside to a distance of 1,500m.
