Rising approximately 650 meters above sea level, the limestone mountain features a circular hole ten of metres wide in its midst, resembling a giant eye gazing down over Cao Bang. Local people say this mysterious \u201ceye\u201d has existed for millions of years, formed through natural weathering processes. This extraordinary feature makes Mat Than Mountain truly one of a kind, not only in Vietnam but also rare worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A Scenic Masterpiece of Nature<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The landscape surrounding Mat Than Mountain is like a painting.
