Fact Sheet

Son Doong Cave

Located in a UNESCO listed park in Vietnam, Son Doong Cave is the world’s largest cave. More impressive, however, deep inside the cave sits a flourishing jungle 200 meters below ground level where the cave roof has collapsed. The rain forest is home to flying foxes, endangered tigers, rare langurs and the largest stalagmite ever found nicknamed Hand of Dog.
