Phong Nha Caves, also called Troc Caves, lie in the limestone cliffs of Ke Bang in Quang Ninh province, 50 km northwest of Dong Hoi. Like most of the caves in this area, the Phong Nha Caves were shaped by the Chai River. The farther one gets inside the Phong Nha Caves, the more illusory the stalactites and stalagmites look as they glitter when bright light is shone on them.
