The Legend of Trong Cave

Trong Cave

But Trong Cave isn’t just its natural beauty; it is also full of history and myth. The cave is closely bound to the heart-rending legend of a tragic love story. According to the local folklore, a poor fisherman and his girlfriend were separated by cruel fate. The woman was put to stay in Trinh Nu Cave or Virgin Cave while he sought shelter in Trong Cave. Although he was far from her, the fisherman would beat against the cave walls in the hope that his lover might hear him across the waters of the bay. This tragic yet beautiful story gives an extra layer to emotions when visiting Trong Cave and almost weighs with the legend as you make your way deeper into the cave. A story that brings to life the natural wonders of Halong Bay and gives meaning beyond the ordinary to your journey.

Why It’s Called Trong Cave

The name “Trong Cave" literally translates as “Drum Cave," and for a very interesting reason: the wind, filtering through the many natural openings, produces a sound uncannily like the reverberation of a drum almost like some eternal call of the fisherman to his lover across the waters. This action of nature gives a mystical touch to the already fascinating realm of the cave. Giving the cave a special identity, it is unique compared to the other stops on any Halong Tour through the possible drum-like echoes that ring within the cave. You cannot help but relate yourself to an ancient legend and the timeless beauty of Trong Cave while listening to the natural sounds here.

Trong Cave represents one of those hidden treasures of Halong Bay, where magnificent natural beauty merges with legendary riches and an acoustical phenomenon that is unique. That is why this place happens to be included in the sightseeing list for those who intend to get a meaningful and immersive Halong Tours adventure.
