Cave description:
From the speleological and hydrogeological point of view, Luo Sai Dong is the most important of all the cave explored, and its exploration is only beginning. Luo Sai Dong entrance shaft is about 50 m deep and it leads to a huge chamber. On a side of the chamber two shafts descend to the higher choked level of gallery at about -100 m of depth. Between -100 m and -200 m several levels of mixed phreatic-vadose smaller galleries connect to the top of a 60 m deep collapse chamber located at the crossing of several galleries. In the lower gallery a subterranean river flows. The upstream gallery is very regular in size and have a keyhole shape for more than 2.5 km.
