After climbing about 200 steps, you reach the Cave of the Ancient Humans (Động Người Xưa).

Human skeletons, stone tools, and burial sites dating back approximately 7,500 years were discovered here during excavations in 1966. It is considered the cradle of Vietnamese history.
The cave is about 300 meters deep and divided into three sections. Inside, there are impressive stalactites and stalagmites.
