Location: The
cave is located atop Phuong Hoang (Phoenix) Mountain, 45km from Thai
Nguyen City along National Road No. 1B in the Thai Nguyen-Lang Son
direction.
Characteristics: The
cave includes 3 layers: the upper layer is Doi (Bat) Cave, the central
is Sang (Light) Cave, and the lower is Toi (Dark) Cave.
Visitors
spend around half an hour climbing up to the cave. Seeing from its
foot, the mountain has the shape of two laying phoenixes. Legend
goes that a long time ago, there were a couple of phoenixes living very
happily and they were born two eggs. Everyday, the father bird looked
for food and the mother bird sat the eggs. One day lured by a new flock,
the father bird forgot his task and did not come back. Until he
remembered his task and returned to the nest, his wife had been
transmuted into a rock. Feeling regrettable, he laid on the opposite
mountain, looking toward the nest with the hope that his wife could
revive. Waiting hopelessly for a long time, he was also transmuted into
stone. Since then the mountain has been named Phuong Hoang (Phoenix).
Reaching
the mouth of the cave, visitors can see the landscape of this land. The
Light Cave is spacious and well-ventilated. The stalactites in the cave
glitter fancifully thanks to the light from the three main mouths of
the caves. Visitors can freely imagine the forms of these stalactites
such as a mother is carrying her son on her back on the way to the
field, ancient people are hunting wild animals, and lanterns.
At the foot of the Phuong Hoang Mountain, there is Mo Ga (Chicken�s Beak) Stream Cave. Its entrance is 100m wide and there is a stream that flows out from the cave. In front, there are many small waterfalls, bathing places, rocks, and small rocky islands. The water is clear and the landscape is fantastic.
The Phuong Hoang Mountain is the most
beautiful in Thai Nguyen with the imposing landscape and beautiful cave.
The site attracts many visitors. Phuong Hoang vestige and the stream in
Mo Ga Cave were listed as National Sites by the Government in 1994.
