Yixing Shanjuan Cave | A Summer Cool Secret Hidden in the Karst Cave🌿
Taking the kids to check in at Yixing Shanjuan Cave! A national 4A scenic spot, the top of the "Three Caves of Yixing." Legend has it that the sage Shanjuan lived here during the Yao and Shun era, adding a full sense of history~
🎈Cave Exploration:
Shanjuan Cave covers about 5,000㎡ and is divided into four layers: upper, middle, lower, and water. Follow the route: middle cave → upper cave → lower cave → water cave. The "Lion and Elephant Grand Hall" and "Cloud and Mist Grand Hall" inside the cave are amazing, showcasing nature’s craftsmanship✨ Taking a boat ride through the water cave is super fun! Traveling through the underground river, admiring the stalactite formations, the whole trip lasts 2 minutes, but it never feels long enough, leaving you wanting more~ The temperature inside the cave is at least 10℃ lower than outside, a perfect summer cooling treasure❄️
🌳 Nearby Stroll:
There are several gardens outside the cave. It was too hot to visit, but if you go when it’s cooler, you can take a look~ Buying a cable car combo ticket lets you reach the top. The ancient temple on the mountaintop is small but the scenery is great, with a fantastic panoramic view⛰️
This family trip lets the kids experience the wonders of nature. 1-2 hours of playtime is just right, very family-friendly👨👩👧 Highly recommend Feiliu Waterfall, spectacular and perfect for photos!
Yixing Shanjuan Cave offers both historical charm and natural wonders, perfect for summer cooling, family outings, and relaxation. Definitely worth a visit~
