Yingyuan Cave, Danxia Mountain Scenic Area

Yingyuan Cave Beckons!

Not too far from the exciting Yangyuan Rock you can find Yingyuan Cave. It's a bit of a tight squeeze through the narrow opening and only experienced spelunkers should attempt to penetrate deeper along the moist cave walls.

Yangyuan Rock!

I know what you must be thinking...

An exciting look at Yangyuan Rock, which can be seen on the approach to Yingyuan Cave. This hard sandstone formation glistens red in the sun and arouses the interest of tourists.

Danxia Mountain Scenic Area, Guangdong province

Danxia Mountain National Park in Guangdong, China

Danxia is a mountain range in northern Guangdong province that looks like a forest of red sandstone peaks.
The geological park is composed of 4 scenic areas: Zhanglao Peak, Xianglong Lake, Jingjiang River, and Yangyuan Mountain.
A fascinating museum was recently added in the vicinity and when seen upon exiting serves as the climax of one's journey to this wonder of nature. (Check out my "Things To Do" tip for more information!)

Pros and Cons

Pros:It's fast becoming one of the most popular places in Guangdong!
Cons:Not for long; they just raised the ticket price from 65 to 100 yuan!
