Hue to Paradise Cave Tour

The impressive stalactites and stalagmites formation inside the cave were the reasons why explorers decided to name the cave as “Thien Duong” that literally translates to Paradise. Unlike the other caves in Phong Nha-Ke Bang, the Paradise Cave is a lot easier to visit as it is dry, lights and wooden stairs were carefully installed to protect the visitors and so does the cave itself.

Hue is 225 kilometers away from the wonderful Thien Duong Cave (Paradise Cave). The journey would be perfect most especially for nature lovers and photographers as the route highlights the hidden beauty of Central Vietnam and the historical landmarks and sites in Demilitarized Zone.
