Benxi Dripping Water Cave

Benxi Dripping Water Cave

Introduction

　 Dripping Water Cave is located 7.5 kilometers south of Benxi City, in the deep valley on the western side of 0 Ridge. A clear mountain stream cuts through solid cliffs and plunges 30 meters down from a cliff face, forming a waterfall. In the rainy season, when water volume is abundant, the waterfall roars loudly, shaking the green valley. When there is less rain, the stream murmurs gently, with water droplets like pearls, forming a curtain of water. In winter, the dripping water freezes into ice, creating a spectacular sight — from the mouth of the cliff to the bottom of the valley, it resembles an upside-down jade dragon, particularly enchanting. On the valley's cliff walls, there are five differently sized caves, along with a one-meter-wide natural walkway. Looking up from the valley floor, the cliffs, steep rock faces, cascading waterfall, rainbows, blue sky, and white clouds create a scene of breathtaking beauty and thrilling magnificence that leaves visitors in awe.
