When
speaking of the beautiful islands of Hạ Long Bay, one must speak
of Bồ Hòn Island or Soap-Berry Tree Island, not only because
of its splendid scenery, but also as it is one of the largest in
the area. There are many grottoes located here, such as the
Surprise, Luồn, Virgin and Male grottoes. There is also a
concentration of high mountains with vertical cliffs like
citadel wall; mountains follow closely make a huge beautiful
watercolour picture on the sea.
French
call this island Les Surprises. There are various species
of plants such as benjamin fig trees, cycads and orchids... and
animals are monkeys, deer and chamois. Perhaps, Bồ Hòn Island
famous for the grotto system hiding inside it. Each of them has
their own marvellous beauty and is related to the moved legends.
