黄龙洞
A Taoist garden at the northern foot of Baoshi Hill, with deep bamboo groves, the Yellow Dragon Spring, the Matchmaker Shrine and Yue opera performances as highlights.
Yellow Dragon Cave lies at the northern foot of Qixia Ridge. It was originally the Huguo Renwang Temple from the Southern Song dynasty and was later converted into a Taoist temple. The grounds include the Yellow Dragon Spring, a square-bamboo garden and the Matchmaker Shrine, which many young people visit to pray for love. Pavilions in the garden often host Yue opera and folk music performances. Admission is about 15 yuan. Nearby are Zhejiang University's Yuquan campus and Shuguang Road.
