Data from the newly detected caves will be released soon.

The Quang Binh People’s Committee said a press conference will be held to announce the discovery of the caves, which suggests that more caves in local mountains are yet to be discovered.

For more than 25 years, BCRA explorers have discovered and measured more than 200km of caves in Quang Binh, helping the province tap into its tourism potential.
