This is well worth the visit and exceeded our expectations. The cave is massive! It's incredible! Getting there was a little tricky as a foreigner who does not speak much Chinese but if you want to get there cheaply ask someone at your hotel/hostel to book you a taxi (I recommend downloading Didi) to the bus station in Jianshui. Then at the bus station show them Swallow Cave off of Trip.com since it is written in Chinese under the title. Once you get your ticket you get on the bus and will have to wait a bit for it to get full. Once you leave it's only about 30 minutes there, and I would suggest showing the bus driver where you are going and he will stop and point for you when he stops at the caves. I recommend going earlier in the afternoon to guarantee grabbing a bus back. We didn't know when a bus would come and asked a family if they knew (using our translator app) and they didn't know about the buses so they ended up just driving us right back to our hotel! If you take the bus it is 11rmb one way while a private taxi is $130rmb one way. The ticket into the caves is 55rmb for an adult and 28rmb for a child.

    Jianshui Swallow Cave feels very shocking to enter the scenic spot. countless swallows circled outside the cave. Enter the cave to admire the ghostly work of nature. It is cool and comfortable inside on a hot day outside. It is beautiful all the way. It is also the first time to see such a cave landscape. I also watched the unarmed climbing of the cliffs of the Yi people performing. Kung Fu is really good. This attraction is worth a visit. Praise.

    Yes, the cave is still very distinctive, the route is well planned, do not go back, it is very good to come out to do the dragon boat, the elderly are not tired to swim, the experience of playing is very good, but unfortunately I didn’t see the swallows, it’s worth seeing if you go to Jianshui.

    Swallows Cave is located in Yunnan Province, is a tourist attraction with karst landscape and cave landscape. The stalactites in the cave are in different shapes and are breathtaking. In addition, the swallow cave is also a habitat for wild swallows. At the turn of spring and summer, flocks of swallows nest in the cave and reproduce, forming a unique ecological landscape. Overall, Swallow Cave is a great place to visit, especially for tourists who like the natural scenery and geological wonders.

    Very interesting attraction, the first big cave in Asia, I think it should not be a four-star attraction should be a five-star. The cave tour is very fun, and there are fish in the innermost cave small pool. Walking in, free boat ride, very interesting. Parking for 10 yuan once, fair and reasonable.

    Asia's largest cave, it is a worthwhile trip, arrived at the hole at 9 o'clock in the morning, first saw the staff climbing unarmed, clear the rock wall obstacles, no protection measures, breathtaking! The deep inside the cave is quiet, and the stalactites are shaped in a thousand shapes and lifelike!

    Swallows caves are still worth going. This is the largest cave in Asia. I personally feel that I have seen this cave, and I don’t need to watch other caves. It seems that the whole cave has not been developed yet. The performance of bird's nest picking is also very exciting.
