Itinerary
The natural wonders of Phong Nha Cave attracts hundreds of domestic and foreign travelers daily. Phong Nha Cave has the longest underground river, spectacular and enormous stalagmite and stalactite formations and beautiful dry cave.
Phong Nha Cave is isolated and can only be reached by wooden dragon boat. The cave is perfect for hiding that is why there is no surprise that the villagers used Phong Nha Cave as shelter, storage and hospital during the Vietnamese Civil War.
