I chose to walk, about 1km away from the forest road . Because i want to discover the forest any arround here.

My experience is drawn from the trip to Quang Binh. If you don’t have a time, you can only go to one of the two caves, so you should go to Thien Duong cave. This cave is much more beautiful than Phong Nha. It’s nicer to go to Phong Nha, why i said that, I will make clear for you when i refer to Phong Nha cave.
