The magestic Hang Son Doong - the largest cave in the world, Vietnam
Deep inside the jungles ofVietnam
Deep inside the jungles of
This
natural phenomenon was found by a local man named Ho Khanh in 1991. But 5 years
ago it was not visited by humans. The whistling sound of wind and roar of fiery
stream in the cave heard through the entrance as well as the steep descent
prevented the local people to enter the cave.

Only in
2009 did the cave become internationally known after a group of scientists from
the British Cave Research Association, led by Howard and Deb Limbert.
Their progress was stopped by a large, 60 metres (200 ft)
high calcite wall, which was named The Great Wall of Vietnam. It
was traversed in 2010 when the group reached the end of cave passage.
The cave is
five times larger than Phong Nha Cave , a
nearby cave previously considered the biggest cave in Vietnam
It is so large that can accommodate several settlements or 40-storey building without any problem. There are not known to humanity plants and organisms as well as extremely rare cave pearls. They are formed by drops of water falling from the ceiling onto the limestone formations - consuming process thousands of years.
The cave
contains some of the tallest known stalagmites in the world, which
are up to 70 m tall. Behind the Great Wall of Vietnam were found cave
pearls the size of baseballs, an abnormally large size.
In early
August 2013, the first tourist group explored the cave on a guided tour at a
cost of US$3,000 each. Future exploration trips are planned.

Have you ever imagined what is to sleep in the aquarium? If
you decide to travel to Manta Resort in Zanzibar, Tanzania ,
you can actually experience this feeling - or at least as close to it, which is
possible to experience a person because the roles of the fish actually are
reversed: you are in the tank, and they, together with water, are outside.
Saying aquarium, do not imagine a simple rectangular court. It's really
wonderful underwater bedroom, part of a small unusual structure into the ocean,
which the owners of the luxury resort tempt lovers of more unusual emotions.
