About this audio guide
This guide to Động Thiên Cung in Ha Long Bay opens with a group of fishermen caught in a storm in 1993, climbing blind up a slick stone stair inside a cliff to find shelter, and finding a cavern the size of a football field instead. It traces the local legend of a Dragon King said to have lived here, and the poor village girl he is said to have chosen for a seven-day wedding. What the fishermen found waiting in the stone above them is best seen for yourself.
