Miaohoushan Site

A large limestone cave system divided into dry and water-filled sections. The main experience is a boat ride along the underground river, passing stalactites, stalagmites, stone columns and large cave chambers. About 2.8 km of the cave system has been developed, including a water route extending more than 2 km into the cave. The temperature inside remains around 12°C throughout the year, so a light jacket is useful even in summer.

It is a historic attraction that combines a Buddhist temple with natural hot springs. According to historical records, the temple was founded in the late Ming dynasty by the monks Guanghui and Guangzhi. Because there was a natural hot spring beside the temple and a mountain ridge behind it, it was once known as Tangshan Temple. It was renamed Wenquan Temple in the early Qing dynasty and was renovated and expanded several times afterward.
