  Arhat Bee Cave

  A large karst cave situated thirty kilometers from the county seat in Luohan Township, it is shaped like a beehive and locally referred to as Bee Cave. To this day, no one has fully explored it. In the 12th year of the Xianfeng reign during the Qing Dynasty, someone inscribed the phrases “Cultivate the land of the heart, nurture the flowers of the soul” and “Heavenly principles endure forever.” During the Republican era, couplets were also written on its pillars—the upper line reading “A hungry belly, enveloping Bee Cave,” the lower line “A few poor bones, holding sway over Pan River,” with the horizontal scroll stating “The World Belongs to All.” Other inscriptions include “Swear to follow—implement the Five-Power Constitution.” Initial explorations suggest this cave has great potential as an adventure tourism destination.

  Bee Cave boasts magnificent and spectacular sights, with enchanting scenery inside the cave, pristine ecology nearby, and a blend of historical and cultural elements. Beautiful legends add a mysterious charm to the cave. An underground river runs through it, ensuring fresh air and spacious caverns. The interconnected chambers form a honeycomb-like structure, hence the name Bee Cave. Inside, there are also many attractions such as a natural maze, natural tunnels, unique rock formations, and an old schoolhouse.
