Silver Cave

There is a local saying in Guilin that goes, 'Visit the Silver Cave, and you'll never lack money in life.' The natural wonder of the cave is displayed in all its glory here, earning it the reputation of a 'world cave wonder'! 🌟 Attraction Introduction ✅ The Silver Cave is a typical karst formation, running through twelve peaks and is a layered cave. Inside the cave, the stalactites glisten like a galaxy, shining like silver, hence the name 'Silver Cave'. ❇️ There are dozens of unique scenic spots inside the Silver Cave, with the three most famous features being: the Snow Mountain Waterfall, the Music Stone Screen, and the Yao Pool Fairyland; and the three treasures: the Buddha Discussing Scriptures, the Mixed Yuan Pearl Umbrella, and the Single Pillar Holding the Sky. ✳️ The Music Stone Screen is currently the most complete set of stone screens in Guangxi. Gently tapping it used to produce ethereal fairy music (now tapping is prohibited to protect it). ‼️ Pit Avoidance Strategy ❌ It's not expensive to take a taxi from Yangshuo, but it's hard to find one for the return trip. ❌ The Silver Cave is very stuffy and hot, unlike some caves that are cool, so it's recommended to dress lightly, bring water, and a sweat towel. ❌ The shopping spots are really too dense, and you will pass through a long shopping corridor when leaving the scenic area. It's recommended not to look or buy and just keep walking out. ❌ The Silver Cave requires walking the entire way, so it's recommended to wear a pair of comfortable shoes. The cost of being carried in a sedan chair is very high and not recommended due to poor cost-performance. 🎫 About Tickets 🎟️ Ticket Price: 65 RMB per person (booking online might be cheaper) ⏰ Opening Hours: 8:00-17:30 🌟 Duration of Visit: About an hour, mainly because it's very stuffy inside, so you can't stay too long. ⚠️Tips: The downhill cable car and the Earth Memory inside the scenic area require separate tickets, which are not recommended to purchase. You can decide based on your own needs. 🚘 About Transportation 🚗 Self-driving Strategy: Navigate directly to Silver Cave, it takes about half an hour from Yangshuo County, and there is a parking lot in the scenic area, charging 7.5 RMB with no time limit. 🚌 Public Transportation: There are daily shuttles to and from the scenic area from Yangshuo, which is very convenient. 📍 Detailed Address: 10 kilometers north along National Highway 321 from Malingshan Town, Lipu City, Guilin. 🌳 Travel Suggestions ✅ Travel civilly, the scenery is beautiful, but do not damage the stalactites. 🌟 Some passages are very narrow, so when taking photos, it's suggested to choose a spacious place. ✨ The walking paths on both sides of the play area often have protruding stalactites, so it's recommended to either watch the scenery or walk, not both at the same time, to avoid tripping or bumping your head.

I've come to Yinziyan again! If I remember correctly, this is my third visit within a year, and every time there are new surprises! Let's talk about the changes first. Since Yinziyan developed its own IP, it has consciously integrated the six IP characters into the scenic area, focusing on the God of Wealth and Pixiu, and highlighting their most dazzling business card---'Wealth Culture'. From the parking lot lawn to the cave entrance, one can feel the strong atmosphere of wealth culture all along the way, even the inconspicuous stairs carry the implication of 'making money in a proper way'. Of course, the most 'cultural' place in the scenic area has to be the cultural and creative store. Cultural and creative products, which integrate culture and creativity, are the true essence of cultural innovation. The decorations and products sold in this small shop all without exception showcase the scenic area's characteristics and wealth culture. There are fridge magnets and mugs with elements of the cave and the God of Wealth, soft and reliable Pixiu plush pillows, multi-colored stamps featuring Guangxi's scenic spots... all of them are culturally creative items with great commemorative value. Taking these items to the cave for photos and check-ins is like adding flowers to the already splendid cave. After visiting Yinziyan three times, I truly feel that it is one of the few scenic areas worth revisiting. The clever integration of natural caves and wealth culture really allows a scenic area to burst forth with strong vitality. Yinziyan

Experiencing the beauty of the caves for the first time, the interplay of lights inside the cave is dazzling, with a kaleidoscope of colors, absolutely worth a visit for everyone!!! I can't help but marvel once again at the natural craftsmanship on display. Here, I witnessed the coexistence of four generations of stalactites, as well as the cliff hanging in the mirror as described in 'The Lost Tomb', which is deeply shocking! I heard this place might also be a filming location for 'Journey to the West'? Friends who have never seen a cave must come!!!!!!! Here are some tips: - Parking fee: 💰7.5 outside the parking lot, 💰10 for covered parking inside. - Admission: 💰55 (can be booked through the hotel you are staying at, usually there is a partnership, which is 10r cheaper than outside). - Attraction features: Karst cave, very beautiful, about 1 hour for a visit, we actually only spent about 30 minutes taking photos, but we recorded and appreciated many charming stalactites. - Other matters: As soon as you enter, you will be provided with an audio guide, be sure to wear it on your ears, listening to the introduction is really great!

Getting There - We took a private car from our hotel. Recommended because if you get a Didi there, you might not find one to get back. you could scooter, or even bike ride there from Yangshou, or any Li River hotel,, but weather was not good enough for that. Attractions - Amazing stalactites and stalagmites lit up with funky lights. it's not a bad thing to do on a poor weather day. in December, it's probably the warmest place around (fully clothed...as there are hot springs!). Hotels - it's labelled as Guilin, but actually near to Yangshou. No hotels around the site itself. Food & Restaurants - There are some stalls with local food outside the caves. Shopping - of course!!!! inside the caves and outside...Disney style. Other- We read that you need to join a tour group, but that's not true now. You get given an audio tour guide and you can't get lost. If I remember correctly it costs 65rmb each adult.

When it comes to hiking, China is super blessed with all the mountains and with less harmful animals. Thus as we decided to walk the talk with the nature, it led us to Guangxi province where the trails and perfectly laid (as we're not hardcore hikers) and quite a relaxing hike we had. After the hike for a while, we ventured to a nearby village to have a look at their customs and traditions. We participated in the local dance performance and the lucky one got a garland (that's me 😋). Later in the trip, we also went to see the Silver caves, which is quite magnificent. These caves are formed by volcanic flow some 1000 years of ago and still the ground holds, so we can go around and have a look. Guangxi is a must visit to all the tourist in here. #leaveyourmark #guangxi #hiking #urbanexplorer #urbanexplorer

As part of my Guilin expedition, the first day started with 🥾 hiking through Silver caves. Spread across twelve peaks 🏞️ in the top, silver cave is quite huge and may take around 2 hours to complete the whole with leisure sighting. You can also get a audio book rented there and hear it on the way for more insights about the cave and how they're formed. It is an easy trail that can be done by anyone, while you got to be properly dressed for all the sweating 😅 inside. For inquisitive minds🧐, it will boil down to the chemical level that will only lead you to find these are calcium carbonate sediments formed by flow of lava🌋 at ages before. They've perfectly lit the whole place for perfect visibility and put out the minute details. #silvercave #cavehike #guilintravel #summervacation#hikingtrails
