Day 3be amazed by the Yellow Dragon Cave, then enjoy leisure time in Baihutang

Today is a good day, in the morning, we will head to visit Yellow Dragon Cave, which is a typical karst landform, renowned for its vast three-dimensional cave space, rich cave landscapes, and a combination of water and land tourism routes, earning it the reputation of being a "wonder of karst caves in the world".

After that, enjoy a leisure time in Baihutang. The name might stem from a time when the place was infested with so many white tigers that people feared venturing in. Left undisturbed, the scenery along the banks of the stream and the wildflowers blooming on the secluded paths remained untouched, offering a pristine beauty to be savored at a leisurely pace. Here, the waterfalls hang gracefully between the mountains like silver threads, their spray scattering like mist and smoke. It is a sight that not only captivates your eyes but also touches your soul, reminding you of the grandeur and magnificence of this natural world.
