The reason is “the road from Hanoi to Ba Vi is very convenient. The distance from Hanoi to the 1,000m level is only 67km. There are only 12km of mountain roads.

The temperature does not change too much, the lowest is 17.8 degrees C and the highest is 29.6 degrees C ”. From 1932 – 1944, the French built many works here such as motels, amusement parks, churches, orphanages, summer camps, youth schools, military bases … At a height of 1,000-1,100m on the western slope of Tan Vien peak is a secret political prison system solidly built to imprison our patriotic communists against the colonial regime. The prison is arranged into 3 zones: Zone 1 is the residence for the prison guards, zone 2 and 3 are the places to keep prisoners. With a total area of ​​nearly 1,000m2, it can detain from 100-200 people.

Mr. Do Huu The – Director of Ba Vi National Park took us along the winding road under the lush green trees to visit Ngoc Hoa cave. This cave is located at an altitude of 350m, about 200m from a motorway. Crouching through a small stone arch covered with vines, we can see the cave. Here, we observe a natural phenomenon that took place millions of years ago, that is the slide of geology due to the movement of the Ba Vi mountain formation, which created interesting caves. Above the cave is a large rock formed by 3 solid pillars to create a large arch about 15m2. Next to the rocky cave is a bat cave with a very “fertile” door shape. The cave consists of 4 doors piercing the mountain bed and is home to about 5-6 species of bats. However, the cave is very deep and dangerous, currently Ba Vi National Park has not allowed visitors to visit. Lying above the bat cave is “The Rock”. Legend has it that this is the place where Princess Ngoc Hoa (the 18th son of Hung Vuong) homesick and looks at the land of Phong Chau ancestor. From Ngoc Hoa cave, we can reach out to the forest lying on the slopes and the villages running far away on the foot of the mountain.
