Bong Lai Valley is a fantastic rural valley interspersed with farms and small villages.<\/h5>\n<\/div>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInLeft”]There are now a number of attractions in the Valley, making it a great relaxing day or half day out in the countryside. Places to visit include the Pub with cold beer<\/strong>, the Duckstop<\/strong>, Moi Moi Restaurant<\/strong>, Pepperhouse Homestay<\/strong>, Bong Lai Swing<\/strong>, Bong Lai Rattan House<\/strong> to name a few. Exploring the valley is an authentic Vietnamese countryside adventure.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeInLeft”]The Bong Lai Valley<\/strong> is best seen on a bicycle or motorbike, or it is a 12km round-trip walking. Going Easy-rider style on the back of a bike with a licensed driver for a stress free adventure is also a great option at 200,000vnd per person.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”3705″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_3d” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” css_animation=”fadeInRight” link=”https:\/\/www.visitphongnha.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/Visit-Phong-Nha-Map.pdf”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_message icon_fontawesome=”fa fa-usd”]There are no entrance fees to any places in Bong Lai Valley, but some activities have a fee. It is best seen during the day so that you can return before it gets dark.[\/vc_message][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_text_separator title=”Pub with Cold Beer” css_animation=”bounceInDown”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”3713″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_3d” css_animation=”fadeInLeft”][\/vc_column][vc_column css_animation=”fadeInRight” width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]This is the original watering spot in the valley for thirsty tourists. They opened in unison with the Farmstay in 2010 and were named for the fact that at the time, cold beer was pretty much nonexistent between the original DMZ Bar in Pham Ngu Lao St Hue and Bars of the old 1\/4 in Ha Noi. Yes, a long ride between drinks it was. Well cold ones, anyway. As advertised, its cold beer, and most of what you eat there is grown in the village. A very \u201cFarm to Table Affair.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Chicken is the specialty of this lively establishment, with chicken so fresh that when you arrive it will still be scratching around the veggie patch! While you wait for your lunch to cook you can rent a tube off them and float down the river, just lie in a hammock with a cold beer or you can get as involved as you like with the preparation of your chicken, even catching and slaughtering the poultry yourself.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]The \u201cPub with Cold Beer\u201d has been praised by foodie writers in publications including the \u201cHuffington Post\u201d<\/strong>, London\u2019s \u201cThe Guardian\u201d<\/strong> Newspaper and the \u201cNew York Times\u201d<\/strong> travel sections.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_text_separator title=”Bong Lai Swing” css_animation=”bounceInDown”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column css_animation=”fadeInLeft” width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]If you want to get further off the beaten track, head a few more adventurous kilometres down the dirt track of Bong Lai valley from the \u201cPub with Cold Beer\u201d to the Bong Lai Swing. Formerly known as the Wild boar eco farm, this spot boasts the best views in the valley and a cricket farm. If you make it up here you will be rewarded with amazing views from hammocks precariously placed on the edge of the valley cliff. [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]In the same spirit of the pub with cold beer, they serve cold beer and delicious freshly cooked pork and other options, but in a more rural setting with views over the river. Be brave and try his fried crickets, they go great with a beer! This is a great spot to swim or hang out. For the thrill seekers out there, this spot also has a swing that goes off the edge of the cliff. You\u2019ll have the opportunity to get some great photos. Past this location lies endless wilderness. It\u2019s the end of the road.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column css_animation=”fadeInRight” width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”3716″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_3d” css_animation=”fadeInRight”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_text_separator title=”Moi Moi Restaurant” css_animation=”bounceInDown”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column css_animation=”fadeInLeft” width=”1\/2″]\n
