The largest cave in the world
Until 1991, almost no one knew about the existence of this cave. While one of the local residents did not get into it. In general, local people are afraid of visiting and avoiding it because they are afraid of the whistling sound of an underground river.
Although the Son Dung cave was discovered more than 20 years ago, the first studies took place only in 2009.
They were engaged in a group of British speleologists, led by Howard Limbert.
The largest part of the cave, located on the territory of Vietnam, is almost 200 meters wide, over 150 meters in height, with a length of about 8850 meters.
Such a space seems so massive that it can accommodate an entire city street.
Inside the cave there is not only an underground river and rock outgrowths, but also a small jungle site.
Literally, the name Son Dung is translated as "the subterranean river".
Of course, the status of 'the largest cave in the world & raquo; can be disputed immediately by several parameters.
