Bat Cave - forgotten beauty?

(Baonghean) - Bat Cave is located in Can village, Chau Binh commune, Quy Chau district, where giant bats come to live. Ms. Lo Thi Xien (84 years old) said: "In the past, bats flew in flocks from nowhere, darkening the sky. That's where the name Bat Cave comes from."

Bat Cave is surrounded by deep green forests, the cave entrance is a mossy green rock that looks like a fish's mouth opening to catch its prey. Inside there are small, deep cave mouths, 5 to 7 meters apart. The cave shimmers magically when there is light, wavy folds, sparkling stalactites. In the afternoon, when the sun gradually sets, the sunlight shines into the cave, the stalactites seem to be decorated and become strangely sparkling.

Tourists visit Bat Cave

Bat Cave is large, with two floors, each floor has different arrangements of stone slabs and stalactites, diverse in color and shape. From the second floor, you can see the entire first floor through a hole about 1 meter wide. Right at the foot of the cave are the vast sugarcane fields of the locals.

Nowadays, Bat Cave no longer retains its original beauty. People enter the cave to break and pry off rocks and stalactites and bring them back, and the bats in the cave have gradually disappeared. Now, Bat Cave is almost forgotten, only the children in the village or curious students visit the cave once in a while...
