The best cave features in Lipu, 荔浦, China

 


The caves in Lipu, Guilin are reputed to be the best in China, with a saying that after seeing these caves there is no need to look at other caves. A long walk/climb inside the cave took us about an hour. The highest point is about 16 storeys high. It is quite challenging as each step is cut quite high, can be a foot in height. However, many of the senior tourists were able to complete the journey in their own time, about 2 hours instead of one hour.

On the way out and down, there is an option to strap into a hanging cable seat, costing 40 Rmb, for an easier and faster descend. Every visitor will be given an earphone with running commentary in Chinese or English as they tour the caves. The earphone needs to be returned at the exit.

Wow Mr RB

That's a memorable and beautiful place to visit in a lifetime.

The beautiful lights and round and round that finally our to a sort of mall to see the actual daylight.

Have to visit and see whilst still able to walk.

If not torturing ups and downs

Luckily there still able to complete the tour.

China's sceneries needed lots of legwork.

Cheers
