Most of the islands
on Ha Long Bay are limestone and were formed over 500 million years
ago, and are massed in the southeast and southwest. The schist
islands scattered in the southeast have an average height of between
50-200m, and have a rich covering of flora.
Within the islands
of the Bay there are hundreds of beautiful caves of different shapes
and sizes, including many famous names such as Thien Cung, Dau Go,
Sung Sot, Tam Cung and Bo Nau. Some of them are archaeological sites
retaining tangible archaeological evidence, such as Dau Go, Bo Nau,
Sung Sot, Soi Nhu, Tien Long, Me Cung, and Trinh Nu caves.
