Since it remains pristine and undeveloped, the entrance is difficult to access with many sharp rocks. Inside, the cave is dark, with only a bit of light coming from the cave's entrance. |

According to experts, the cave was formed after volcanic eruptions about 15 million years ago. Its walls feature many partitions that form unique patterns. |

The deeper parts of the cave are home to millions of bats, that is why locals call it the Bat Cave. The atmosphere inside is described as pleasant, not foul-smelling like other bat caves. |

Another branch of the cave under the teak forest has an entrance wide enough for just one person to pass through, but inside, it feels like a fortress. The roots of trees penetrating deep into the cave, together with the flashlight's light create an enchanting scene. |

When exploring the cave, many visitors feel as if they are walking through an "underground tunnel," surrounded by unique natural architecture and a cool atmosphere. |

The cave's ceiling mesmerizes visitors volcanic stone formations. "This is my first time exploring a volcanic cave, and I am amazed by the natural beauty right beneath the villagers' fields," said Lan, a visitor from Ho Chi Minh City. |

The more deeply one goes into the cave, the more challenging the path becomes. Visitors have to squeeze through narrow rock crevices to move forward. |
