General Yan’s Cave

General Yan’s Cave Underground Lake consists of an underground water cave and a dry cave, with a total length of 2,168 meters, including 782 meters of water cave and 1,386 meters of dry cave. It is divided into three major scenic areas: the Underground Lake, General Yan’s Cave, and Tongtian Gorge. The dry cave’s attractions such as the “Pillar Supporting the Sky,” “Treasure Lotus Divine Lamp,” “Jade Dragon Coiling the Mountain,” “Fairy’s Secluded Valley,” and “Tongtian Gorge” embody the majestic, rugged, perilous, and unpolished beauty of masculinity; the water scenery in the underground lake — such as the “Galaxy Fairy Palace,” “Dragon Palace Scenic Wonder,” “Two Birds Sharing Food,” “Heavenly Mountain Sacred Water,” and “Jade Pool Fairyland” — showcases the serene, tranquil, clear, and elegant beauty of femininity. The harmony of yin and yang creates spectacular wonders, earning it the reputation as China’s premier cave destination for both water and dry cave exploration.

General Yan’s Cave boasts a rich historical and cultural heritage, where historical relics and natural landscapes blend seamlessly, complementing and enhancing each other. It serves as an ever-inspiring source of creativity for scientists, artists, and aesthetes, and stands as another uniquely charming tourist attraction along the Yangtze River tourism development corridor.
