Son Doong Cave was found in 1990 by Mr. Ho Khanh (a local jungleman in Phong Nha), and surveyed in 2009-2010 by the British-Vietnamese Cave Expedition Team, Son Doong Cave was announced as the largest natural limestone cave in the world in 2009 by the expedition team and confirmed by the National Geographic Magazine in 2011. National Geographic TV also reaffirmed Son Doong as the largest cave in the world by volume of 38.5 million cubic meters.

The cave gained fame for its sheer size, with its largest chamber, known as the "Great Wall of Vietnam," stretching for over 5 kilometers (3 miles) and reaching heights of 200 meters (650 feet).

Son Doong Cave spans approximately 9 kilometers (5.6 miles) in length, with sections broadening to around 150 meters (500 feet) in width. Its volume is so vast that it could accommodate a city block of skyscrapers.
Son Doong has a unique ecosystem. It houses its own microclimate, featuring a lush jungle, subterranean rivers, diverse flora, and rare fauna, including new species of animals.
