Bama Crystal Palace Cave
水晶宫
A gallery-like karst cave in Nashe Township, its walls covered with glittering calcite crystals, helictites and soda straws that are still growing. It is a rare 'crystal' cave.
The Crystal Palace is located at Niudong Tun in Daluo Village, Nashe Township, Bama, about 43 km from the county seat. The gallery-like cave has a visitable section of over 1,000 metres. Its walls and ceiling are covered with white, translucent calcite crystals, helictites, cave flowers and soda straws, which sparkle under the lights. It is considered a rare, high-quality cave in China, and many of its deposits are still growing. The air inside is humid and rich in negative ions. Opening hours are about 08:30–17:30, and ticket prices follow the scenic area's announcements. Touching the crystals is strictly forbidden, and some passages are narrow and low. It is often combined with Baimo Cave and Bainiao Rock in a day trip, by self-drive or a local day tour. Coordinates are estimated.
