Following Road 20, the ride continues toward Cat Tien National Park, an area once used as a strategic militia headquarters during the Vietnam War.

Arriving at Cat Tien National Park, settle into your hotel and enjoy a quiet evening surrounded by nature, reflecting on the resilience of this remarkable landscape.
