Hiking
Walk up and take the elevator down. There are two sets of stairs leading up the mountain. The stairs not next to the elevator are also steep, but less crowded.
Very long line for the elevator, so walk! 😁 Not suitable for older people, some of the steps are very high.
Very interesting caves, beautiful pagodas... Perfect in January at 20 degrees Celsius. Very crowded even on weekdays.
40,000 VND per person entrance fee at the stairs.

The Huyen Khong Cave is the most impressive highlight of the Marble Mountains (Ngu Hanh Son). It is a large, open cave known for its mystical atmosphere, sunlight streaming through skylights, and a giant Buddha statue. Originally a sanctuary, it served as a hospital and shelter during the Vietnam War.
The cave is located in
Thuy Son (Water Mountain), the largest of the Marble Mountains. It is dome-shaped, reaching heights of up to 30 meters, and is illuminated by natural openings in the ceiling.

Inside is a large statue of Shakyamuni Buddha, created in 1960. There are also shrines to the goddesses Ngoc Phi and Loi Phi, where visitors pray for good fortune, health, and peace.
During the Vietnam War, the Viet Cong used the cave as a secret field hospital and weapons depot.
