The only canyon outside the cave - Yincui Gorge
Walking into Jiuxiang Karst Cave, the first thing you encounter is Yincui Gorge, also known as "Valley of Lovers". It got its name because the local Yi boys and girls often come to both sides of the canyon to sing and express their feelings to each other.
As the only gorge outside the cave in Jiuxiang, it is a unique existence. Its special feature is that it breaks the tradition that there are no stalactites in the gorge outside the cave, and stalactites can only be formed in caves.
The stalactites grow in the canyon on the surface, which is also due to the love of nature. It used to be a karst cave connecting the mountains on both sides, and the stalactite landscape has appeared on the cave wall.
Later, due to the movement of the earth's crust, the roof of the cave collapsed, forming a canyon. The gaps in the canyon became larger and larger, and it became the magical landscape of "surface canyon stalactites" we see today.
Cliffs - Scary Gorge
As the name suggests, Jingshen Gorge is named for its "dangerous, strange, handsome and steep". The narrowest part of Jingshen Gorge is only three or four meters. When people walk through it, a strong sense of oppression and suffocation comes to their faces.
The unique geological conditions have created the thrill and excitement of Jingshen Gorge, and also brought magical landform wonders - a line of sky, a beam of skylight pouring down through the entrance of the cave, and a rainbow in the cave appears when the water vapor is abundant.
Natural wonders - ancient river piercing holes
The river is the soul of the development of karst landforms, and Jiuxiang is no exception. The Maitian River is the soul of Jiuxiang. This river connects every karst cave in Jiuxiang.
The river flows in the cave, scours, beats and hits, and has never changed for hundreds of millions of years. Because of this river, today's Jiuxiang came into being.
Natural Symphony Hall - Lion Hall
As the signature scenic spot of Jiuxiang, the Hall of Lions needs not to mention its grandeur, grandeur, and mystery. Let's talk about its unusual side.
The Lion Hall is not only a karst cave with high ornamental value, but also a natural symphony performance hall. In 1999, a large-scale cave symphony concert - Dream of Jiuxiang was held here.
During the Golden Week of November this year, a large-scale cave symphony concert was also staged.
The melodious melody reverberates in every corner of the lion hall. The sound is blocked and returns to the original path, and the music overlaps. In this way, the sound processed by the cave has the momentum of galloping horses, and the ethereal, calm, and loud effects are extremely shocking.
Underground Wonderland - Goddess Palace
Goddess Palace is a typical representative of Jiuxiang karst landscape, and it is named "Goddess Palace" because the stalactite shapes here are related to "immortals".
There are pictographic landscapes such as "Yushu Qionghua", Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, Tota Heavenly King, Taibai Jinxing, Tang Monk, Master and Disciple, and flat peaches from the Moon Palace.
There are many stalactites in the Goddess Palace, and the tall stalactites are connected into pieces, forming a dreamy and mysterious underground wonderland under the intersection of light and shadow.
The soul of Jiuxiang - male and female waterfalls
The male and female double waterfalls are one of the soul attractions of Jiuxiang. They are majestic and magnificent, with the heroic spirit of swallowing mountains and rivers and looking down at the mountains.
Hearing the sound before seeing its shape is the biggest feature of the male and female waterfalls. Walking into the fine view, the waterfall has a drop of about 30 meters, and the pool is more than 10 meters deep. The two waterfalls, one high and one short, hang on the cliff, like a pair of lovers.
On both sides of the waterfall are jagged rocks, waterfalls and karst caves form a natural landscape picture with air penetrating Changhong and ravines.
Pictographic "terraced fields" - Kanda
Kanda is called a side stone dam in geology, and the small one is called a side stone basin. Under the ground as deep as 100 meters, it seems that it cannot be done by human beings, but can only be made by gods with boundless power, so it is named Kanda.
According to expert research, among the more than 2,000 karst cave scenic spots that have been developed in the world, Kanda in Jiuxiang is the largest group of edge stone lakes.
