The cable route is nearly 4km long, including 60 cabins with a capacity of 30 people/cabin, helping to shorten the travel time from Cat Hai Island to Cat Ba town by half, while minimizing road vehicles, contributing to environmental protection. The unique highlight is the 214.8m high cable tower - recognized by Guinness World Records as the tallest in the world, creating an overwhelming feeling when the cabin gently passes over the deep blue sea.

This is not just a means of transportation, but a breathtaking journey that takes you to the beauty of natural wonders in a completely different way.
