Reed Flute Cave is situated in a completely concealed spot on Guangming Hill, 3.2 miles northwest of the town and is Guilin's largest and most impressive cave.
This dripstone cave is 790 feet deep, and a visitor will walk for some 550 yards through a zigzagging sea of stalactites and stalagmites in dazzling colors. Although the cave is also known as a Palace of Natural Art, manmade strategies use artificial lighting to emphasize the coincidental similarity of the rock formations to birds, plants, and animals.
