Paradise cave and Dark cave.

Paradise cave is the longest dry cave in Asia (located in the central zone of Phong Nha - Ke Bang National Park.) With its naturally primitive features, Paradise cave resembles a scenic painting, making it a natural wonder admired by many since its opening in 2010. According to speleologists, the deeper you go into the cave, the more you enjoy the celestial clarity wells around. The cave's height can reach 72 meters and its width 150 meters. There is a series of white crystals (stalactites) resembling natural pillars and many other spectacular formations.

Dark Cave is ideal for adventure and action lovers. The visit includes many activities : zip-lining over a turquoise river; swimming to the mouth of the cave (life jackets included); walking in the dark with only the headlamp of your miner's helmet to light the way; mud fighting in the mud pools at the bottom of the cave; swimming in the internal lake... Returning by kayak on the river with a suspended obstacle course and open zip-line. Dark cave is named for being one of the few caves not equipped with artificial lighting. The cave is primarily composed of basalt and limestone. Basalt is a black, hard rock that also contributes to the cave's name. You’ll squeeze through narrow, muddy passages using only your headlamps to light your way.
