Must-Visit Cave of Light in Lichuan

Journey to the center of the earth! Explore Asia's largest cave 🏞️ Complete guide to Tenglong Cave in Lichuan
Step into a bizarre underground world! I was amazed by Enshi Tenglong Cave! Truly worthy of the title "Asia's No.0 Dry Cave," standing at the cave entrance you can feel the majestic power of nature, with cool air rushing in, instantly cooling you down.
Walking inside feels like entering another dimension. Towering domes and diverse stalactites tell stories of hundreds of millions of years under the interplay of light and shadow. My camera just wouldn’t stop clicking. What amazed me even more was the Tujia ethnic song and dance performance inside the natural cave theater. This blend of ethnic culture and natural wonder offers a uniquely immersive experience!
