A Beginner's Guide To Caving in Vietnam - 2023

The aroma of cinnamon and star anise brings back vivid memories of Vietnam, a country that left a lasting impression on my taste buds with its fragrant and intense flavors. The enticing scent of pho was a constant companion as I journeyed through diverse landscapes, hiking through lush rice terraces, weaving through motorbikes on my way to hidden bars — all within one month.
We're gonna start on the north of the Vietnam, do the North loop and slowly move to the south of Vietnam.

Paradise Cave

One of the "must see" in Central Vietnam.

Paradise Cave, also known as Thien Duong Cave, is located in Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park in Quang Binh province, Vietnam. It is the longest dry cave in Asia, stretching 31.4 km in length and reaching heights of up to 60 meters. The cave is renowned for its stunning stalactite and stalagmite formations, which have been created over millions of years. Unlike Phong Nha Cave, Paradise Cave has no underground river flow, making it convenient for sightseeing and exploration

Stunning cave that just keeps getting cooler and cooler the more you walk into it. There are tons of caves in Phong Na to choose from but this one is a must see.
