Son Doong Cave
Located in the limestone mountains of Phong Nha - Ke Bang National Park. Son Doong
Cave was first found in 1991 by Ho Khanh, a local man. In 2009, the cave was explored and
published by a group of scientists from British Cave Research Association.
Son Doong Cave was formed from 2 to 5 million years ago, when the river flowed through
the limestone mountain area and was buried. The water eroded limestone and created an
underground tunnel. In soft limestone areas, the collapse of tunnel ceiling formed large holes
which became giant domes afterward. The cave is about 200m high, 200m wide and at least 8
5km long. Especially, Son Doong consists of two entrances, which is unique among explored
caves in Phong Nha - Ke Bang National Park. Exploring the cave, visitors were surprised with
spectacular scenery of numerous stalactites of which some giant stalagmites are more than 70
metres high. Deep inside the cave exists a grandiose tropical jungle called “Garden of Eden" by
the explorers. The jungle is home to a diversifiedsystem of fauna and flora. Besides, the cave
possesses a 2.5-kilometre underground river. Not far from the “Garden of Eden” lies an
enormous “pearl collection” consisting of tens of thousands of small stone pieces in dry ponds,
contributing to magnificent beauty of the cave.

Located in Duy Xuyen district, Quang Nam province, about 69km from Da Nang City and
20km from Tra Kieu ancient capital, My Son Sanctuary is the complex of numerous Champa
tower-temples in a valley roughly two kilometers wide, surrounded by two mountain ranges.
This used to be a site of religious ceremony for kings of the ruling dynasties of Champa, as well
as a burial place for Cham royalty and national heroes.
My Son Sanctuary is regarded as one of the main religious centers of Hinduism in Southeast
Asia and is the foremost heritage site of this nature in Vietnam. Notably, among 225 Cham
vestiges that are founded in Vietnam, My Son possesses 71 monuments and 32 epitaphs, the
content of which is still being studied. My Son Sanctuary is often compared with other historical
temple complexes in Southeast Asia, such as Borobudur of Java in Indonesia, Angkor Wat in
Cambodia, Bagan of Myanmar or Ayutthaya in Thailand.

23 session of the World Heritage Committee in 1999. Based on architectural remains, My Son
perhaps began construction in 4th century. It is perhaps the longest inhabited archaeological site
