Together with Cuc Phuong national park Vietnam, the attraction is one of the biggest nature reserves in Vietnam. A lot of separated mountains arising above a water area is the home of thousands of kinds of animals and plants. Especially, there are Delacour's Langur, which is included in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. You may have a glance at this when it comes out of the rocky cave to seek foods. Otherwise, there are always flocks of white storks covering a wide area on the swamps and mountains.

It is famous for Meo Cao Mountain, Mam Xoi Mountain, Hon Sach, Da Ban, Nghien Mountains... All of them contribute to an overall view on a wide area of silent water. You will sit on a boat winding through these mountains and admire a "garden" of lotus blossoms in June.
