Overview

Sung Sot Cave is a notable cave in Quảng Ninh, Vietnam. It lies in northern Vietnam, best visited in autumn or spring.

Why visit: Phong Nha holds the largest cave passage on earth, and several others big enough to hold their own jungle and weather.

Things to do

›Book the big caves months ahead — permits are strictly capped
›Wear shoes with grip; the floors are wet limestone
›Take a torch even on the lit routes
›Check seasonal closures, which are about flooding, not opening hours
