望天洞

A large limestone cave in Yahe Township, Huanren, with over 5,000 meters of surveyed passages. A skylight in the roof lets you gaze up at the sky from deep underground.

Wangtian Cave, or 'Sky-Gazing Cave,' is located in Yahe Township of Huanren Manchu Autonomous County, roughly 10 to 15 kilometers from the county seat. It is a large limestone cave with more than 5,000 meters of surveyed passages. Inside you will find a rich variety of stalactites, flowstone curtains, and stalagmites, along with an underground river and lakes. A skylight in one chamber lets visitors look up at the sky, which gave the cave its name. Most of the visit is on foot, with some sections by boat. The cave stays cool, so bring a jacket. Allow 1.5 to 2 hours. Check on-site for current admission fees. It can be combined with Wunüshan Mountain Fortress in a single day.
