Trinh Nu Cave

Overview Trinh Nu Cave

Located on the island range of Bo Hon in the system comprising the Sung Sot Grotto, Dong Tien Lake, and Luon Grotto, Trinh Nu Cave or Virgin Cave is known as the symbol of true love, and is the romantic place for taking the oath of love.

Besides its association with a fanciful love legend, Trinh Nu Cave also remains the site of important archaeological finds in Halong Bay. Many archaeologists discovered the remains of prehistoric inhabitants of Halong culture (about 4,000 years ago) with traces such as ash, bone fragments, and stone in 2000.

In addition, in 2010, pieces of ancient ceramic wharves just in front of Trinh Nu cave, such as porcelain and crockery as well as jars with decorative patterns like ocean waves were discovered. They were identified as belonging to the Tran dynasty (13th-14th centuries) while glazed pottery pieces existing from the more recent Le dynasty (16th-18th centuries).

Finally, based on the results of these discoveries, ones believe that Virgin cave was a small, ancient pottery vestige in the old Van Don trading system. Nowadays, Bhaya Cruises is the only cruise operator allowed to visit the area where Trinh Nu Cave is located, under the special authorization of the Halong City government.
