DESCRIBED by many as the eighth wonder of the world, nothing really prepares you for the spectacular natural beauty of Vietnam’s Hang Son Doong, hailed as the largest cave on the planet.
Featuring its own lake, jungle, waterfall and unique weather system it is a breathtaking sight and the closest underground kingdom to Jules Verne’s Journey to the Centre of the Earth according to this documentary by writer-director Alastair Evan.
