Hangzhou - Yellow Dragon Cave

(Local Name: Huanglong Dong) Yellow Dragon Cave (Huanglong Dong) lies some 500m/550yd west of Baochu Ta Pagoda, at the foot of Qixia Ling hill. In the first half of the 13th C a monk lived here; he built a hut in front of the cave, and towards the end of the Qing dynasty (1644-1911) this was extended into a Taoist monastery.

Note the spring gushing forth from the jaws of a dragon. There is a bamboo grove near the cave.
