Caves of Vietnam

in #travel6 years ago

If you go to Vietnam definitely go see some of those beautiful caves systems!
I don't think you can see the scale of thes caves in my pictures but i am going to give it a try.
When i was there i said it was so ridiculous big and i can't explain that to somebody that wasn't there.

First stop was National park Phong Nha-Kẻ Bàng.
Here you can drive a boat in to the caves. Inside the caves they are not aloud to use the engine so it's very quiet... at least if there are no screaming children in one of the other boats.

After a little trip over the water u come to a point where you get out of the boat en start walking up to one enormous tunnel. it's so big you can fly a privet jet trough there. the first picture is looking up from the boats and the second is looking down to the water.

And the best cave so far is Paradise cave. This is a 31 km cave system and also can't explain the beauty and the size of this if you have not been there. This cave is so big, you really can fly an airbus in here! And the stalactite and stalagmite are as big as some houses! You really can't imagine it! The next two pictures are from that cave, the first one is from halfway in to the main hall looking up to the entrance. Can you spot them man in the red T-shirt? he is at the entrance, top left! And the second is from halfway down looking in to the tunnel! If you look closely you can see the wood stairs come from the top and see little people walk on it all the way down.

Here are some pictures from those stalactite and stalagmite. I tried to get some reference on the pictures like lamps and stuff. If you look closely, some of them have people in the picture!
