Hong Son Doong, the world's largest cave, was formed by a river eroding Vietnam's limestone mountains. Discovered by British cavers in 2009, it remained largely unexplored until Ryan D Boot captured its beauty in a viral video using a remote-controlled camera in 2014. The cave features misty clouds, jungles, and ancient fossils, and has been open to the public since 2013, allowing more people to experience its wonders.
