Furong Cave

芙蓉洞

Part of the World Heritage site “South China Karst,” with rich secondary chemical formations such as stalagmites, stalactites, and crystal coral, and known as an underground palace of art.

Furong Cave lies about 20 km southeast of Wulong's urban area, on the banks of the Furong River. It is a large limestone cave discovered in 1993. The main cave is about 2.7 km long, and about 1.8 km is open to visitors. Stalactites, stalagmites, cave flowers, and crystal pools take many forms, and the lighting makes the cave especially spectacular. It is one of the three components of the Wulong Karst World Heritage Site. Admission is about CNY 120, though prices vary slightly if you include the uphill transport from the riverbank. The cave can be paired with a Furong River boat cruise on the same day. Note that the cave is damp and the ground can be slippery. Do not touch the stalactites.
