National Geographic didn't lie to me! Yaolin Fairyland in Tonglu is breathtakingly beautiful

Yaolin Fairyland is a typical karst cave, stretching 1 kilometer deep with a total area of 500,000 square meters. Stepping inside feels like entering a magical underground world. Under the colorful lights, the stalactites and stalagmites of various shapes come alive—the "Milky Way Waterfall" is majestic, the "Sky-Supporting Jade Pillar" stands tall and firm, and the "Thirty-Three Heavens" stalagmites are stacked layer upon layer, creating a dreamlike scene. In the afternoon, venture into Yaolin Fairyland for an 18°C fantasy journey. The stalactites under the colorful lights are even more stunning, with the "Milky Way Waterfall" cascading from a height of 7 meters and the "Thirty-Three Heavens" stalagmites layered beautifully. Visiting in July or August, you might even encounter "flying snow" inside the cave. The cave maintains a constant temperature of 12-18°C, warm in winter and cool in summer. Even under the scorching sun outside, the cave remains comfortably cool. Compared to other similar caves I've visited, Yaolin Fairyland offers a more pleasant experience with moderate crowds. Though humid inside, the ground isn't too slippery or steep, making it friendly for elderly visitors and children. 📍 Location: Dongqian Village, Yaolin Town, Tonglu ✅ Transportation Guide: About a 1-hour drive from Hangzhou.
