ONE MORE GEOPARK IN VIETNAM GETS UNESCO RECOGNITIO­N

On July 7, Dak Nong Geopark received global geopark status from UNESCO, becoming the third of its kind in Vietnam after the Dong Van karst plateau and Non Nuoc Cao Bang.

Dak Nong Geopark was set up in 2015 with some 65 heritage sites including craters, a system of 50 caves created by volcanoes running a total length of 10,000 m and waterfalls. Characteri­zed by sub-equatorial tropical monsoon and plateau climate, the area possesses many valuable geomorphol­ogical heritages and other cultural values as well as traces of early humans.
