Guangdong Surrounding Tours: Unveiling Taihe Ancient Cave, 3 Major Highlights That Made Me Reluctant to Leave!

Family, I recently discovered a hidden travel gem—Taihe Ancient Cave, an absolutely perfect spot to relax and unwind on weekends! Now, I’m sharing this super practical travel guide with you all, so quickly save it! 😎

📍Address: Taihe Road, Qingcheng District, Qingyuan City, Guangdong Province. If driving, just navigate directly to "Taihe Ancient Cave" and follow the GPS to reach smoothly.

If taking public transportation, take bus 220 or 307 from Qingyuan city center, get off at Taihe Cave Road Entrance stop, then walk a few minutes to the scenic area.

🎫Tickets: Adult tickets are only 15 RMB, children and seniors 7.5 RMB.

🌟Must-visit Attractions:

1. Natural Mountain Spring Pool: As soon as you enter the scenic area, you’ll see this amazing natural mountain spring pool. It’s fed by mountain spring water, crystal clear to the bottom, like a giant mirror. The water temperature stays around 20°C year-round. Jumping into the pool in summer feels like being wrapped in a cool force, instantly melting away all the summer heat.

2. Jade Belt Waterfall: Walk up along the scenic trail, and from afar you’ll hear the rumbling water sound, as if nature is performing a passionate symphony. Approaching closer, a nearly 100-meter-high waterfall comes into view—this is the spectacular Jade Belt Waterfall.

3. Taihe Treasure Hall: The Taihe Treasure Hall, restored multiple times, still retains its simple and elegant charm. It’s not just a building but a heritage of history and culture. Standing in the open space in front of the hall, you can overlook the entire scenic area and enjoy the beautiful view of Qingyuan city.

🍱Food Recommendations: After playing, you must try the local cuisine! There are many farmhouses near the scenic area with great flavors. Be sure to try Qingyuan’s specialty dishes, like Qingyuan Lotus Leaf Chicken. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the fragrance of the lotus leaf perfectly infuses into the meat, giving you a mouthful of happiness!

🏠Accommodation Suggestions: If you plan to stay overnight near the scenic area, you can choose local homestays. These homestays are nestled by the mountains and water, with a quiet and peaceful environment. Waking up to the crisp bird songs and breathing fresh air makes you feel one with nature.

📅Best Travel Time: Summer is the best time to visit Taihe Ancient Cave. During this season, the mountain spring water is abundant, and both the pool and creek tracing routes are open, making it perfect for escaping the heat and enjoying water activities.

❗Notes:

1. There are quite a few mosquitoes in the scenic area, so remember to bring mosquito repellent products like floral water or mosquito repellent bracelets, or you might get “attacked” by mosquitoes, which will affect your mood.

2. If you plan to go creek tracing, be sure to wear non-slip shoes. The stones in the creek are very slippery, so safety comes first. Also, don’t go alone to remote areas; it’s best to go with friends and look out for each other.

3. Although there are changing rooms and restrooms by the pool, for convenience, it’s best to bring your own towel and shower supplies.

Family, don’t hesitate any longer! Pack your bags and start a romantic date with nature at Taihe Ancient Cave!
