River at the start of the trip has floating garbage but as we got closer to the caves also saw many empty soft drink cans floating down. Not a good example for a world heritage site. Enjoyed the boat trip into the caves and would recommend it to others. Hire motorbikes from Nam Long Hotel and ride out to the...

Dong Thein Duong is one of the better caves with its walkways the caves should last for years with human impact.

The size of the caves and their formations are truly stunning. The horrendous flourescent lighting, crowds and cigarette smoke however are not so much. It's a real shame to see something as impressive as this being laid to waste which it truly is. If you have plenty of time in the area then visit these caves first, Paradise is by...

Phong Nha and Paradise Caves are quite amazing. The former you can sit in a boat for about 500m or so, which is a serene and great experience. Paradise cave system is truly amazing and quite unlike anything else I have seen. Nothing really prepares you for the endless displays of stalactites and stalagmites.

I loved the size of the caves, they are immense. On the down side, there are not many stalagmites and stalagtites.

These 2 caves are a must see in Vietnam, Both are very different but you will not be disappointed making the effort to get there for the caves. You will need a couple of days in the region to appreciate the scenery and see both caves.

This is a definite MUST DO on your visit to Vietnam. I thought these caves were even more stunning than the one at Halong Bay.
Enjoy a wonderful boat ride down the river to reach this cave. A trip you will not regret!

Phong Nha Khe Bang is a National Park in the Quang Binh province, and mostly visited by tourists wanting to see a more natural part of Vietnam. It has much to offer the eco-tourist, including caves, minority groups and various trekking and adventure tours.
The Phong Nha cave is accessible by boat via Song Son (Son River) boarding in the...
