The way to Sung Sot Cave slips under the forest canopy, through the steep stone steps, which inspires tourists feelings like about going to heaven.

Sung Sot Cave

The cave includes two main compartments. The whole of the first one looks like a big theater. The cave ceiling is covered with a layer of "silky velvet carpet", a variety of "chandelier" hanging with bright sparkling stalactites, stone statues, stone sharpen elephant seals, flowers and so on. All seems to vaguely blend between reality and dream. Then, you walk into the second compartment with a small road. The brilliant lights in cave open a completely new landscape where can accommodate thousands of people. The scenery is very strange, like the lush tree foliage, sea bear, dinosaur, etc. Reaching the cave peak, suddenly “a garden area" is unfolding in front of your eyes with clear water lakes, charming scenery, tropical forest where monkeys often gather together to look fruit, which disturbs all the whole area.
Luon Cave is nestled on Bo Hon Island, 14 km far from Tuan Chau Pier. This highlighted spot is a fascinating open-air cave that is more likely a tunnel at the foot of the mountain. Traveling by bamboo boat or kayak through the gate, you see a circular lake with calm water surface and luxuriant vegetation surrounding the cliff, on which monkeys run on lush trees. In the spring, orchid blooms fragrantly and the world underwater is popular with a variety of species such as shrimp, fish, crab, squid, etc.

Brackish water lake in the cave is surrounded by four mountain faces, approximately 1 km2 wide. This cave type doesn’t appear a lot, yet perhaps it is unique and attractive to tourists. It is an intertwined and harmonious combination of nature.

3. Me Cung Cave

Me Cung Cave is located on Lom Bo Island at an altitude of 25 m above the sea level. From a distance, the whole scene is like a roof door ingrained in the island slopes.
