Phong Nha Entrance Fee Of Ecotourism Sites

Phong Nha Ke Bang National Park is located in Bo Trach and Minh Hoa districts, Quang Binh province. It is about 50 km northwest of Dong Hoi city and about 500 km south of Hanoi capital.

Up to now, within Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park, more than 400 caves of various sizes have been discovered, with a total length of 210km. All are connected by 3 main cave systems: Phong Nha Cave system (total length 103 km), Hang Vom system (48 km), and Nuoc Mooc cave system (20km).

According to estimates by cave experts of the British-Vietnamese cave expedition team, only about 30% of the area of Phong Nha Ke Bang National Park has been surveyed. Therefore, cave experts assess that the National Park area still has many hidden caves that must be surveyed and explored.

Besides the magnificent cave systems, Phong Nha National Park also has many underground rivers, and rare flora and fauna listed in Vietnam’s Red Book and the World’s Red Book.
