Yiling Yan Grotto

Yiling Yan Grotto is located on top of a hill 29km/18mi to the north of the city. Popular tradition has it that about 1500 years ago a Taoist hermit lived here. The people used to take refuge in the cave when faced with adversity. In the 1100m/3000ft long dripstone cave the visitor will see stalagmites and stalactites of every conceivable shape, while neon illuminations provide fantastic lighting effects.
