Sung Sot Cave

Sung Sot Cave

Among the most beautiful and appealing of the Ha Long Bay caves and grottos, Sung Sot is a dazzling work of nature, astonishingly vast in size, despite its inconspicuous appearance from the outside. The rocky entrance down into the cave, coated in dense vegetation, leads to two large limestone-laden chambers, each meticulously decorated with a millennia-old ceiling of delicately formed stalactites. The impressive rock formations are colourfully lit up. All of this can be viewed from the comfort of a smooth walking path that traverses the cave.
