Longkong Cave in Longyan, Fujian | The No. 1 Cave in East China.
| The No. 1 Cave in East China. Scenic Area: A national 4A-level scenic area, known as the "Guilin in the Cave". Formed in the Paleozoic Era 300 million years ago, the cave has 8 halls and 16 branch caves, divided into upper, middle, and lower levels, and takes 1–2 hours to visit.
Tickets: CNY 50/person (scenic area) CNY 47/person (Trip.com) Children CNY 25/person
Children under 120 cm are free, the scenic shuttle bus is CNY 5/one way, and the boat is CNY 30/6 people.
There are scenic area staff at each point to provide free explanations, and there are 2 photo spots with fees, but they are not mandatory.
Highlights:
1. There is an underground river where you can row a boat out of the cave. (There should be no children who don't like it)
2. There is a point where you can "go upstairs", walk around in a circle, and then "go downstairs".
Dining:
There are several restaurants on the mountain road and in the scenic area, where you can order set meals/noodles, all clearly priced.
There are also some small shops selling instant noodles, sausages, grass jelly, etc.
Transportation: Self-driving is convenient, and there is a medium-sized parking lot on the mountain. During the National Day holiday, there were 3–4 parking spaces left when we arrived, just full.
The mountain road winds around, and I didn't pay much attention, estimating 30–60 minutes on the mountain road.
