About Yundongyan Scenic Area
Its attraction lies in the spaces between those rocks: Qianren Cave opens into a broad sheltered cavity, while Yixiantian narrows the view to a slender cleft of sky. Paths and steps reveal changing angles on the stone landscape.
The cave’s name, “Thousand People,” should not be treated as a capacity claim. Choose the accessible sections on the day, particularly when rain makes the rock passages slippery.
What to look for
- Qianren Cave, formed within the piled rock masses.
- Yixiantian’s narrow rock passage and strip of sky.
