兜率灵岩
A large limestone cave at the south foot of Doushuai Island, the large island in Dongjiang Lake. Visitors must take a boat to reach it. Its high halls, stone columns, and flowstone are spectacular, and it is a key stop on lake tours.
Doushuai Island is a large island in Dongjiang Lake, covering about 6 square kilometers. Beneath the cliffs at its southern foot lies Doushuai Cave, a large limestone cave. The cave extends several kilometers deep. Its tall stone columns, flowstone, and cave formations are impressive, and a Doushuai Ancient Temple stands at the cave entrance. Visitors board boats at the Dongjiang Lake tourist pier. The boat trip offers views of the lake and mountains along the way. It is usually included in the 'lake tour plus cave' combined tour, subject to the scenic area's current announcements. The full visit takes about half a day. The cave is cool, wet, and slippery, so bring warm clothing and watch your footing.
