Virgin and Male grotto - Quang Ninh

The Virgin grotto is situated on Bo Hon islet, 15km south of Bai Chay beach. It runs winding through the heart of the island it occupies for more than 2km.

Here are many chambers, each offering its own beautiful features such as almost life-like stalactites and stalagmites. For some fishermen, the Virgin grotto is home. While for young lovers it is a popular romantic rendezvous site.

When visiting the Virgin Grotto, you can still see the petrified girl with her long hair hanging down and eyes looking towards the mainland. Opposite, the Male Grotto is still home to the lover, whose face is turned towards his mate. At times, his passionate calls and blows against the walls of the grotto can still be heard.
