Boasting the World Heritage site, Phong Nha Grottos, and housing a long list of rare plants and animals, the central coastal province of Quang Binh is ideal for tourism, especially eco-tourism.
Tourists are advised not to miss the Phong Nha-Ke Bang Cave system which has been recognised by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) as a World Heritage Site. It is hemmed in by over 400 million year-old limestone mountains, the oldest of their kind in Asia, with 87,750ha covered by the original forests. Home to almost 570 species of plants and 880 species of animals, including over 60 species listed as endangered in Vietnam and the world, the original forests on the site are judged to be the richest biological system in Vietnam.

The huge numbers of mysterious grottos appeal to adventurers, scientists and tourists both inside and outside the country. The 17-cave system covers a length of almost 64,390m, according to a famous British cave research organisation, holds seven records: the longest water cave, the most beautiful underground lake, a cave system with the largest number of longest underground lakes in Vietnam, the highest and largest parabolic cave mouth, the largest and most superb sand beach, the largest number of large and mysterious stalagmites and stalactites, and the largest and most beautiful dry cave.

Quang Binh also preserves a number of historic and cultural relic sites, and intangible cultural assets with many festivals showing links to coastal lives such as the fishing prayer. The province is also home to different ethnic minority groups which enriches its folk music with many instruments, including drums and gongs as well as folk songs.

Coastal beauty sports include the famous Ngang Pass, Gianh River, Nhat Le sand Beach, and Bang mineral Spring, which have all made the province an ideal site for eco-tourism and sanatoria.
