Puzhehei Karst Caves
普者黑溶洞
Numerous caves lie beneath the peak forest, with stalactites and stalagmites that glow in colored light. Reached by boat or on foot, they make a good option on rainy days.
Puzhehei is a classic karst landscape, and many caves have formed beneath its lone peaks. Open to visitors in the scenic area are Huoba Cave (Torch Cave), Xianrendong Cave and others. Some caves connect with the lake and can be entered by boat. Inside, stalactites, stalagmites, curtain formations and columns take on varied shapes and glow in colored lighting. The temperature stays in the teens Celsius year-round, so the caves are very cool on summer days. A visit to one cave takes about 30 to 60 minutes. Most have steps and boardwalks, and the floors can be slippery. Tickets are sold per cave or as combined passes, so check with the scenic area. The caves are a good option on rainy days or during the hot midday hours, and they can be combined with boat trips and cycling. Note: the caves are dim and humid, so wear non-slip shoes. Do not touch the stalactites, as they grow extremely slowly.
