Ho Dong Tien (Fairy Lake Cave) is one of the most beautiful caves on Halong Bay. It's famous for the beauty, geological and historical values.
Ho Dong Tien cave is same as other caves if you just look at its gate from outside. Its entrance can be flooded up to one third when the tide rises. The Cave can be divided into three chambers and the way connecting them is very narrow that is big enough for only one person to go through at a time. It's very dark in the middle of the cave so you need to bring torches in order to discover the cave and watch beautiful stalagmites and stalactites which are everywhere and make the cave become more special. Besides, we can see limestone lofts hanging on the wall, which are relics of geolical history of Halong Bay. They have been formed for thousands of year so scientists can do research and restore geological history of this area. It's interestingly that there are small animals living inside the cave where there is no sunlight but nobody know how they can survive.
