Hin Nam No National Park lies in Boualapha District, Khammouane Province and is contiguous to Vietnam’s Phong Nha – Ke Bang National Park.
The area is one of the world’s most intact limestone karst landscapes. Formed some 400 million years ago where the Annamite Range meets the Indochinese Limestone Belt, it contains more than 220 kilometers of caves.
Among them are Son Doong and Xe Bang Fai, two of the largest on earth.
The photo shows the entrance to Xe Bang Fai, known as Tham Khoun Xe, captured by photographer Nguyen Trong Cung during an expedition in late November.
