The 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 150-minute cave dining experience will be on offer for lunch and dinner daily at the 43,000-square-foot cave, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Situated a 30-minute drive from Ha Long 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, it is one of a complex of five caves in the Vung Duc historical relic site.
Situated more than 147 feet above sea level, the cave formed around 150 million years ago and is dubbed “a theater inside a mountain” by locals due to its two chambers and myriad stalagmites and stalactites. To that point, APC’s chefs are crafting a dining experience that will cater to up to 800 guests. Options will range from an international buffet to fine dining. A 45-minute live performance, which is yet to be finalized, will precede the cave dining experience.
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.
