Vov/Hanoitimes 16:48, 2015/02/18
When caught with a case of wanderlust, Vietnam’s Son Doong Cave is one of the few particular places that stand out among the crowd on this beautiful planet, the Huffington Post said on its website.

Until about six years ago, nobody had EVER explored Son Doong Cave, the world’s largest by most counts— but now it is one of the top 10 trips on our ultimate shortlist of places we’d absolutely love to see, the website added.

Located approximately 500km south of Hanoi, the cave is more than 200m wide, 150m high and about 9km long. It houses a jungle and a river and could fit a 40-storey skyscraper within its walls.
