Cỏ Cave is located on Hon Cỏ Island, and is named after it by locals. It is a relatively untouched and pristine cave, part of Route 4 on the Ha Long Bay sightseeing itinerary. The cave lies approximately 19 km from Tuan Chau International Marina and about 14 km from Ha Long International Cruise Port.

                   The entrance to the cave is quite narrow, but once inside, visitors are amazed by the majestic and mysterious beauty that unfolds before them. The stalactite formations inside the cave are tinged with warm golden-brown hues, creating a rugged and striking impression. Although the cave ceiling is not too high, it is adorned with countless shimmering stalactites hanging down, making the space resemble a grand performance stage decorated with ancient, stone-carved chandeliers.

A standout feature of the cave is the natural lighting system that filters through cracks in the ceiling. On sunny days, the light beams into the cave in magical columns of color, creating a mesmerizing visual effect that enchants every visitor.

Following a small path toward the end of the cave, where sunlight streams through, guests are rewarded with a breathtaking view of Ha Long Bay from an ideal vantage point. Here, the limestone islands stretch out endlessly across the Bay, cloaked in lush vegetation. Vibrant flowers bloom, white boats float gently on the turquoise sea, and a ribbon of soft white sand winds around the base of the island. The refreshing ocean breeze enhances the vastness and tranquility of the scene, leaving visitors with an unforgettable and deeply moving experience.

With its unique and spectacular natural beauty, Cỏ Cave - Thien Canh Son has become a popular destination for both domestic and international travelers. Visitors to Thien Canh Son not only explore the mystical charm of the cave, but also enjoy kayaking adventures through the stunning seascape of sky, water, and limestone mountains.
