For enthusiasts of ecological exploration, bird watchers and river adventurers, Cat Tien National Park is a rewarding destination.

The park is not only an attractive eco-tourist site but also an archaeological project associated with culture, history and religion.
Cat Tien's waterfalls create large sand banks like beaches. The biodiversity includes bamboo woodland, grassland, wetland and primeval forest. The park has over 1,360 species of flora including 34 listed in the Red Book and many types of precious woods. There are 77 species of mammal, 320 species of bird, 58 species of reptile, 26 species of amphibian and 130 types offish. Some are threatened with extinction such as the Java rhino, bull, Asian elephant and fresh-water crocodile.
Watching the birds looking for food and then bringing it to the tops of the green trees is a nice experience. So is discovering the green forests and the secrets of the plants.
Some tree-trunks are hollow but still stand imposingly with other normal trees. Some have giant roots tied together like greeting gates.
After passing through the forest, travelers should relax on the large rocks and listen to the birds sing in harmony with the murmurs of the streams and be dazzled by the waterfalls. Tourists can also visit artifacts of Oc Eo Culture and many cultural and historical features of ethnic people.
