Ninh Binh, located in the Red River Delta, is blessed by nature with a diverse and rich geological and geomorphological landscape, creating unique caves unlike anywhere else. And when visiting Ninh Binh, if you are someone who loves exploring the majestic beauty and masterpieces of nature, then you definitely shouldn't miss Thien Ha Cave.
Dubbed the most beautiful cave in the Trang An scenic complex, Thien Ha Cave was discovered in 2007 and is located in the eastern part of Son Ha commune, Nho Quan district, Ninh Binh province, about 24km from the center of Ninh Binh city.
The cave is 700m long, with 200m being dry and 500m being wet. Exploring the dry cave on foot and the wet cave by boat will provide visitors with incredibly interesting and fascinating experiences.

The cave contains tens of thousands of stalactites and stalagmites in a variety of magnificent and unique shapes, hundreds of millions of years old, formed by geological processes.
Entering Thien Ha Cave, visitors will walk along a very wide corridor with a skylight. When the sun shines down the skylight, visitors will be overwhelmed by a dazzling, majestic, and magnificent beauty as they see the stalactites shimmering in many colors, like a "fairyland". In the summer, even when it's very hot outside, stepping into the cave will make you feel incredibly cool and comfortable.
The cave still preserves many traces of ancient Vietnamese people, mollusk shells, fragments of crude pottery, animal bones, turtle shells and plastrons, and is also home to hundreds of bats. This shows that Thien Ha Cave has retained its pristine, unspoiled beauty.

One of the most unique aspects of exploring Thien Ha Cave is that after traversing the vast corridors, visitors continue their journey by boat.
You will be amazed as the boatmen explain the legends, origins, and naturally occurring, "strange" shapes of the stalactites and stalagmites.
In the darkness of the wet cave, the stalactites hanging from above or rising from the water sparkled like the Milky Way within the mountain.
