Top Highlights in Phong Nha–Ke Bang
Phong Nha Cave
Accessible by boat from the town center, Phong Nha Cave is the park’s namesake and one of the most accessible. Cruise along the underground river to marvel at the vast caverns, striking rock formations, and cathedral-like ceilings carved by water over millions of years.
Paradise Cave (Thiên Đường Cave)
Often described as one of the most beautiful dry caves in Asia, Paradise Cave stretches over 30 kilometers underground, with accessible walkways through its first kilometer. Stroll among towering stalagmites, shimmering rock formations, and cathedral-sized chambers.
Son Doong Cave
The largest cave in the world by volume, Son Doong is a geological wonder. Its colossal caverns house entire jungles and weather systems of their own. Access is limited to multi-day expeditions with licensed operators, but for serious adventurers, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Dark Cave (Hang Tối)
Part adventure, part obstacle course, Dark Cave is a favorite for those seeking thrills. Zip-line over a river, swim into the cave’s mouth, and wade through a natural mud bath deep inside before kayaking back to the entrance.
Hang En Cave
The third-largest cave in the world and often used as a base camp en route to Son Doong, Hang En offers overnight camping experiences inside its massive chambers, complete with jungle treks and river crossings.
