After the lunch break, we continued exploring the Chay River and Dark Cave.
Firstly, you start discovering the Dark Cave by a high aerial zipline across the Chay River to reach the Dark Cave. You will be equipped with a flashlight helmet and necessary devices to discover the unique stalactites and stalagmites. They will sparkle when you shine a light on them.
Additionally, you will have a great experience in the Dark Cave with the natural mud bath. The more you go deep inside the mud bath area, the path will be smaller, with 1m only and quite slippery. Hence, you must move slowly to ensure safety.
When you put mud on your body, your whole body will automatically float, making you feel extremely magical and excited about this unique experience. After the mud baths, you will walk out to Thuy Tien Lake and Bong Lai Lake inside the cave to wash the mud clearly.
