Last updated 2026-11-14 — Wuxuan features a karst landscape, which has given rise to its numerous caves. The karst cave scenery is one of Wuxuan’s major tourism assets—abundant, beautiful, and extraordinary, with nature’s craftsmanship leaving visitors in awe. Notable examples include Dalong Cave and New Turtle Rock in Huangmao; Golden Drum Rock and Golden Rooster Rock in Jinji; Awakening Lion Rock on Twin Lions Mountain across the river from the county town, and Bell Rock on Ma’anshan within the town; as well as Liao Liu Rock in Tongling. Among them, the Rhinoceros Cave in Guhang Village, Luxin, stands out as the crown jewel: with a deep cavern and a 2.8-kilometer-long underground river corridor, its vast main hall can accommodate over ten thousand people. The cave is marvelously complex, with chambers within chambers, caves above and below, all interconnected—perfect for a game of hide-and-seek. As for the stunning stalactite formations in peculiar and diverse shapes, even experts would be left speechless upon seeing them. No wonder Fang Changling, deputy director of the National Karst Research Institute, once remarked, “The Rhinoceros Cave embodies the beauty of a thousand caves and the wonder of ten thousand more—it can be called the No. 1 cave in China.” Wuxuan’s caves are not only beautiful and unique but also serve as prehistoric cultural sites, where fossils of animal bones, teeth, tools, stone axes, and stone chisels have been discovered, making them a veritable museum of the Paleolithic and Neolithic ages with significant archaeological and scientific research value.
