Tam Coc, means "three caverns", including Ca cave, Hai cave and Ba cave. All three caves are formed by the Ngo Dong river stabbing through the mountain. Tam Coc is the first cruise line to be exploited in Tam Coc - Bich Dong tourist area.
Ca cave is 127 m long, through a large mountain, its mouth is over 20 m wide. In the cave, the climate is quite cool and there are many stalactites hanging down with various shapes.
Hang Hai, nearly 1 km from Ca cave, is 60 meters long. The cave ceiling has many stalactites hanging down very strangely
Hang Ba, close to Hai cave, is 50 m long, ceiling like a stone arch, lower than the other two caves
Want to visit Tam Coc, visitors get off the boat from the central wharf. Boats take visitors on Ngo Dong river winding through cliffs, caves across the water, rice fields. Time to go and come back about 2 hours. The landscape of Tam Coc, especially on the two sides of the Ngo Dong River, can vary with the season of rice (green rice, yellow rice or silver water in the field).
