Hanzhong Tiankeng Cluster
汉中天坑群(小南海)
A group of karst sinkholes near Xiaonanhai in Nanzheng, including Quanzi Cliff and Guanyin Cave, whose spectacular scale can be appreciated from walking trails above.
The Hanzhong tiankeng cluster is spread across the Micang Mountains in Nanzheng, Ningqiang and Zhenba. The part near Xiaonanhai Town in Nanzheng is the easiest to visit. Tiankeng such as Guanyin Cave and Qingshiguan are several hundred metres deep, with steep cliffs on all sides and dense forest on the floor. Viewing platforms and trails have been built so you can overlook the entire pit mouth. Access varies from pit to pit, so check that the scenic area is open and the road conditions before you go. Transport: about 1.5 hours' drive from Hanzhong city centre. It is often combined with Longtou Mountain on the same day.
