Dragon Pearl Cave in Vietnam’s North To Unveil “Dreamlike” Dining Experience
Dragon Pearl Cave
The majestic Dragon Pearl Cave in Vietnam’s north will metamorphose into a restaurant and concert hall from April this year when Asia Premier Cruises (APC) Corporation launches a cave dining experience accompanied by live entertainment.
The 2.5-hour cave dining experience, believed to be one of the largest of its kind on the planet, will be on offer for lunch and dinner daily at the 4000-square-metre cave.
About a 30-minute drive from Halong City, Dragon Pearl Cave is one of the biggest caves in the Bai Tu Long area of Vietnam’s Cam Pha district.
Surrounded by the Ban Co mountain range, Dragon Pearl Cave is one of a complex of five caves in the Vung Duc historical relic site. Situated 45 metres above sea level, the cave formed around 150 million years ago and is dubbed ‘a theatre inside a mountain’ by locals due to its two chambers and myriad stalagmites and stalactites.
APC’s chefs are crafting a dining experience that will cater to up to 800 guests. Options will range from an international buffet to white table fine dining. A captivating 45-minute live performance, that is still being finalised, will precede the cave dining.
Filled with natural daylight that enters the top of the cave, Dragon Pearl Cave’s first chamber will serve as a reception area before guests move into the second, larger chamber, which will host entertainment and dining.
Nguyen Cao Son, the chairman of APC, which owns Halong Bay’s leading boutique cruise line Ambassador Cruise, said the cave dining journey was poised to become a “bucket-list item”.
“Our mystical cave dining journey will mark a new milestone in Vietnam’s cultural tourism, turning a UNESCO World Heritage listed site into a remarkable stage that celebrates nature, history, art and good cuisine in a way never seen before.” Nguyen added.
