Reed Flute Cave

Reed Flute Cave (Ludi Yan) is located in the northwestern section of the city. It is 240 m deep and is probably the largest and most magnificent cave in Guilin. It is named for the kind of reed growing near the cave, which make fine flutes.

Inside the U-shaped Karst cave are a large number of stalactites, stalagmites, stone pillars, stone curtains, and stone flowers, all glistening in colorful lights. There are more than 30 interesting sights including "Pines in the Snow", "Mushroom Hill", "Dragon Pagoda", "Sky-Scraping Twin", "Virgin Forests", "Red Curtain" and "Flying Waterfalls". The Reed Flute Cave is justifiably called the " Art Palace of Nature".
