Silver Cavem Yangshuo, Guilin

Guilin is full of limestone hills.No photo description available.

The karst landscape was the perfect setting for the movie, Liu San Chie, Third Sister Liu.

We were staying at Yangshuo for a few days and were taken to see the Silver Cave. Though the majority of the group had wanted only to do shopping, a few of us took the opportunity to wander into the caves for a good look.

The Silver Cave is located in Maling town (sounds like Sibu's Maling) and is only 11 miles from Yangshua.

It is the largest kasrst cave in Guilin and we were very impressed by the crystal stalactites. The caves are brightly lit and the stalactites glitter like silver and diamonds. This actually results in its name. Silver Cave.

Very majestic. And your spirits will definitely be uplifted by the smiles from the tourists. Advice - never go with a group which is silly and ony interested in shopping.

Extra notes : Winding 2,000 meters (2,187 yards) through twelve peaks, the Silver Cave is a multi-level cave ascending as high as 16 floors. It can be divided into three parts - the ground cave, the main hall, and the upper cave. (Wikipedia)
