Around 100 kilometers from the city of Guiyang, in the Chinese province of Guizhou, there is a strange place, particularly loved by Chinese tourists : the Longgong Caves.

Summary:

This site, also known as the Dragon Palace, is made up of various caves that are dotted throughout a network of waterfalls and rivers.

The main cave, the Dragon Cave is 50 metres high and 844 metres in length. There are five successive chambers, with an underground river winding its way through them: the Dragon's Entry Chamber, the Dragon's Cavern, the Chamber of the Five Dragons, the Well Chamber and finally the Chamber of the Three Caverns. Each of the Longgong Caves has its own distinct beauty and atmosphere. A timeless, fascinating place where you would like to stay forever.

To get to know this natural masterpiece better, travelers take small canoes and follow a five-kilometer guided cruise. Thanks to powerful lighting on the cave walls, the stalactites and stalagmites yield up all their mysteries.
