Taiping Karst Cave. Located in Meizao Town, just over 200 meters from National Highway 319. The cave entrance still retains ancient stonewalls, indicating that it was once a military stronghold. Its history as a strategic pass can be traced back to the Southern Song Dynasty’s Marshal Yue Fei. In the third year of the Shaoxing era (1134 AD), after successfully quelling bandits in the cave, Yue Fei established a military outpost here due to its location at the junction of Ningdu, Xingguo, and three other districts. That means Yue Fei set up this stronghold 868 years ago. Two of the seven major battles in Xingguo’s history took place inside this cave. During the Shunzhi era of the Qing Dynasty, peasants rose up in successive rebellions against the army, but their forces were defeated here, with thousands killed or wounded. Unwilling to witness further warfare, locals renamed Meizao Cave to “Taiping Rock” (meaning “Peaceful Rock”). Taiping Rock is a medium-sized, maze-like limestone cave, covering an area of over 10,000 square meters. The cavern features massive chambers and a complex structure, with at least three levels having been explored. The upper level is dry, the middle is damp, and the lower level contains multiple underground rivers. Dozens of intersecting passages twist and turn, extending deep beyond sight. Among the 30-plus caves, some are hundreds of square meters in size, while others are only a few square meters. The cave is winding and crisscrossed, resembling a labyrinth. Inside, the stalactites take on countless vivid forms—lifelike statues of Buddhas and human figures, exquisitely detailed stone lotuses, banyans, and peaches, mirage-like towers in the air, the twisting “Great Wall,” and playful groups of stone monkeys, serene deer, clumsy penguins, and fierce eagles—all are strikingly lifelike. Under the lights, they shimmer in dazzling hues of green and red, presenting a breathtaking spectacle.
