Dong Hoi / Phong Nha: Full Day Tour to Paradise & Dark Cave
Ho Van Sy · GJong Hoi
Overview
Opened to the public in 2010, Thien Duong or Paradise Cave is 31 kilometers in length, making it the longest dry cave in Asia. The interior feels as lofty, heavenly, and humbling as a grand cathedral. With vaulted ceilings rich in stalactites, it's an exceptionally beautiful cave. Travelers shouldn't miss it.
The dark cave is amazing, and the real experience involves kayaking across the river to get there, walking through the darkness with just your headlamp touching your forehead, getting into a mudfight in the mud baths deep within the cave, and then cleaning off with a swim in the lake inside the cave.
