About Nielong cave

Its passage links chambers decorated with stalagmites, curtains and flower-like mineral formations. Water is a defining part of the experience: the named Dongtian Feipu waterfall drops inside the cave, adding sound and movement to the stone scenery. Follow the signed visitor route through the chambers; the cave’s changing floor and water conditions make it a different outing from the nearby mountain temples.

What to look for

  • Mineral curtains, stalagmites and flower-like formations along the connected cave chambers.
  • Dongtian Feipu, the waterfall inside the cave.

Location & getting there
