It is located in central ofQuang Binh Province, about 500 km south of Ha Noi. the capital of Viet Nam. Thanks to its complex geological structure with different kinds of stone, Phong Nha - Bang can be compared to a huge geological museum. Phong Nha- Ke Bang mountair can provide a lot of valuable information about the Earth's geological developing through various periods.

Phong Nha- Ke Bang is famous for its caves such as Phong Nha, Tien Son and Thien Duong Caves. Son Doong Cave is considered to be the largest one in the worid with 200 metres in height, 200 metres in width, and at least 8.5 kilometres in length.Because of its geological value, Phong Nha- Ke Bang was recognised as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2003. I strongly recommend that you find time to visit Phong Nha- Ke Bang Park. It'd be worthwhile exploring its caves and grottos, and seeing the diversity of its flora and fauna. If you enjoy mountain climbing, there are some steep mountains over 1,000 metres high, which can be a real challenge for adventurous climbers.Thank you for joining me today!
