Con Moong Cave

Con Moong cave (Vietnamese Hang Con Moong) is located in the South of Mọ village, in Thành Yên commune, in the Thạch Thành district of Thanh Hoa province, lying in the area of Cuc Phuong National Park. Cuc Phuong National Park not only protects the rare and precious animals in Vietnam, but also is a preserve for the archaeological relics of the prehistorical period that are significant not only to Vietnam, but also to the greater region. Among these relics, the most outstanding one is the archaeological site of Con Moong cave ("the beast" cave). In 1976 Vietnamese archaeologists excavated the site.
