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.
