Yingde Shijing Underground River

Yingde Shijing Underground River

Yingde Shijing Underground River is situated in Meicun, Limeshu Town, Yingde City, approximately 15 kilometers from the city center. Surrounded by majestic peaks and clear waters, the region boasts a delightful climate and enchanting scenery. The cave is filled with a stunning variety of stalactites in diverse forms—exquisitely colorful stalagmites, draperies, curtains, and waterfalls that are a feast for the eyes; exquisitely crafted stone birds, animals, Buddhas, and monkeys that are remarkably lifelike; glistening stone flowers, fruits, mushrooms, and grapes that are mouthwatering to behold; and the grand underground art palace of nature leaves all visitors in awe. Shijing Underground River is a prime example of karst topography in northern Guangdong. After hundreds of millions of years of erosion, sculpting, sedimentation, and crystallization, it has formed into the spectacular underground cave wonderland it is today. The cave features a myriad of fantastical and mesmerizing landscapes, combining breathtaking aesthetic value with the unique experience of being the only underground cave in Yingde that offers both boat tours and hiking exploration.
