The Thiên-Đường Cave (Paradise Cave ) is a cave in the Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park in Vietnam , 60 km north of the provincial capital Dong Hoi and 440 km south of Hanoi .

During the first expedition in 2005, researchers estimated its length to be less than 3 miles. In May 2010, researchers said the cave was 31 km long. This makes it the longest dry cave discovered in Vietnam to date, possibly also the longest in Asia.
