    Paradise cave is a 50 million year old cave in Phong Nha Ke Bang National Park which itself holds 3 of the 4 largest caves worldwide although these are not open to tourists. The caves were also described as very similar with the limestone formation in the area, which was underwater 400-600 million years ago and is formed from the marine life that was once there. The largest is Dong Son Doong and is by far the largest worldwide and costs around £3000 for the trip to enter.

    The maximum height and width within paradise is about 72 and 150 metres respectively. The stalagmites were very cool and have formed over millions of years producing colours from the different elements and their own unique shapes. It is also the largest dry cave in Asia (No river inside).
