 Son Doong: Looking Into The World's Largest Cave In Vietnam, Its Formation And Mythological Theories

Living in the forests of Vietnam, it stands at 200 meters in height, wide at 150 meters and over 5 kilometers long. The cave is at a depth of 300 meters from where it is as long as 9 kilometers, and its deepest part is 490 meters from the land.


In this vast world of us, we consider a lot of spots to be attractive and mysterious for the tourists. Everyone wants to enjoy the natural spectacles, and the Son Doong cave of Vietnam is no different. The name itself might feel unfamiliar for most of the tourists, travel lovers or earth wanderers. The gigantic cave is far bigger than one would think as they entitle it as the 'world's biggest cave'.

Comparatively, one of its entrance is tiny and covered with fog. Few years back from today, no one knew about this cave and the world inside the cave remained intact from the outer world. Because of the high flow of river water and extreme darkness, no one thought to explore it before. In the year 1951, a person named Ho kahn discovered this cave and later in the year 2009, the British Cave Research Association did the expedition entered the cave and introduced the natural bliss to the world. After that, this cave gained recognition globally.

They halted an expedition in 2009 because the crew couldn't go further as there was a wall of rock as high as 200 meters. Later in 2010, a crew found the way to cross that wall and realized that this was 500 times bigger than the largest cave in Vietnam and twice the size of Deer Cave of Malaysia. 


 


This cave has one of its portion broken from top where a small forest is present and a river flows from it at a high speed. Experts have found the species that are as old as 300 million years have been found in this cave and have the tallest Calcium Hydroxide (OH2) rocks in the world. An Expedition team used the Laser technology to find out the size of the cave. Cave by the name of 'Mountain River Cave' because it is located beside the rauoat nowing river.

Cave has its own forest, a part of the cave has collapsed because of its own weight and created an enormous hole as we can see it in the first picture above. Sunlight comes through this opening in the cave leading to more life growth in it. It takes about 36 hours or a day and a half to reach the cave from the forest.

The Son Doong Cave was opened for tourists for the first time in the year 2014, with a limited number than 220 tourists for safety reasons. They keep the number of tourists quite low but because of its craze the bookings are done in very advance.
