KIM QUY CAVE (FROM THE GOLDEN TURTLE)

On Dam Nam Island, the Kim Quy cave (of the Golden Turtle) stretches over a hundred metres. It is associated with the legend of the Turtle (that of Hoan Kiêm Lake in Hanoi) in a mess that raises real questions. According to the legend scrupulously collected from the centenary fisherman who lodges in a rock cranny on the slope under the island's wind, the Turtle, after offering the Act the magic sword, would have returned to the sea by descending the Red River. But, coming to Along Bay, the Turtle was confronted with attacks by a horde of sailors with whom it had to negotiate. Overcome, she found refuge in this cave, which since then bears her name. Conclusion: who is the Hoan Kiêm Lake turtle?
