The cave is a good experience when it comes to going back to nature. There's certainly quite something to see from the formation of stalactites and stalagmites in the cave. The Chinese have enhanced the formations with a bit of cultural values about them, analogizing them with traditional stories and occurrences. It's just that there aren't too much to do... More

A one hour tour of spectacular lighting to highlight nature's wondrous ways. But if you like this sort of artificial light show ...that's fine but can get hum drum... Not for those physically challenged ...lots of steep steps!!!

Discovered less than 25 years ago, this is the best of any caves in Yangshou. The lighting is a bit over the top but the breadth of stalactites and stalagmites is awesome and is one of the top 5 things to do here b

This place goes on and on! Our guide said he would see us in an hour. I didn't see how...but after wandering in the cave for almost that period of time, I understood. It is huge. The cave has been Disneylanded ---- colourful lighting along the way to display the stalagmites and stalactites, and a cobbled path (yes, you read... More

Massive cave developed as a tourist attraction with lights. The cave and stalagmites and stalactites were amazing. Not sure about all the coloured lights though. White lights only would have been better.

Having seen a number of other such caves throughtout the world I was a bit reluctant to go to yet another cave, but what an experience. The caves are huge and well lit. It is easy to get through, no difficult crouching etc which you find in some caves but be warned there is a fair amount of walking and... More

Beautiful natural cave about 1 1/2 miles walk in the interior. Lit up with colored lights at many points to highlight the rock formations. Just beautiful! We were the only westerners there.

Was worried that it would be too touristy and crowded. But, it's possible ot avoid the mass tour groups and marvel at the scale of the caves. Recommended.

We just went to see the silver cave which is around 20 km away from Yangshuo. The cave itself was really spectacular with beautiful scenery. Unfortunately it was all lit up with colourful lights, which made it a bit kitschy.Chinese people seem to love this though. A good guide joined our group. Only in Chinese though, but very enthusiastically.
