The way from the cave’s mouth to the insider has 120 anti-plastered rocky footsteps. There are forest trees at two sides greeting visitors with their warm welcome. According to Feng Shui theory, Hương Tích Cave (Đông Hương Tích) is the mouth of a big Dragon, Dun Gao Mountain is the dragon’s tongue and it is one of Vietnam Popular Destinations. In the old days, people who wanted to go from the cave’s mouth to the cave’s ground must walk on two parallel ironwood bridges, named “White Lotus Bridge” in the deep cave, cross a lotus pond.
According to Phan Huy Chu's geographic book, "Huong Tich Mountain is on the west of Tuyet Son Mountain, along the flume and going up stream, after climbing up for many layers of the mountain we will reach the cavern. The nature's scene here is like being made by the holy being, very strangely and skillfully, thus it is the most beautiful cavern in the Southern Sea. It is said that the Bodhisattva took control of this pagoda with the sacred staff. Each spring, people from everywhere come here to pray and show their worship. It is the main reason why it becomes one of Vietnam Popular Destinations.
Huong Tich Mountain is on the height of more than 900 meters. The entrance was made manually in the early time by local residents of Yen Vi village. Though the way was still bendy and dipped, it is much easier for visitors to walk on.
The beauty of Huong Tich Mountain also includes the “rocky cloud ladder” road. More than 2000-meter road from Tro wharf (Suoi wharf also) is neither too far nor too high, but still it troubles the newcomers. It’s not easy at all to get into Buddha’s place if from the bottom of your heart you don’t want to get there.
