🚏Overview of the scenic area:
🔆Located in Tonglu County, Hangzhou City, Yaolin Wonderland is a typical representative of the karst caves in the subtropical humid region of the central coast of East China and is a national scenic spot.
🔆Yaolin Wonderland is divided into three cave halls, among which the most worth seeing are the 'Milky Way Waterfall', 'Sky-Holding Jade Pillar', 'Thirty-Three Heavens', and 'Yaolin Jade Peak'. With a little imagination, you can see many strange stones that resemble animals, such as 'elephants', 'lions', and 'frogs'.
🔆With its winding and exquisite cave landscape and gorgeous stone scenery, it is known as the 'Crown of All Caves in the Country'. The painter Ye Qianyu praised it as 'rare in China, rare in the world'.

🚘Transportation guide:
🚄High-speed rail: You can take a taxi directly to the scenic area from Tonglu Station, but the distance is far and the cost is high. A more economical choice is to take the No. 2 bus to the Fenshuijiang Bridge Bus Terminal, and then transfer to the K206 bus directly to Yaolin Wonderland.
🚗Self-driving: It is about an hour's drive from downtown Hangzhou. The parking lot in the scenic area is large, and the fee is 10 yuan per time.

🍛Food recommendations:
1️⃣Yaoji Noodle House, a 20-year-old shop, random soup noodles are recommended (with lots of ingredients), and the locals also like to eat pot-fried vermicelli👍🏻
2️⃣Fat Wife Restaurant, the first choice for cost-effectiveness, you can taste the local home-cooked food in Tonglu for an average of 80 per person, it is very popular, it is best to make a reservation in advance, recommend fatty intestine pot, Wo wonton (special dish, different from the usual wonton)👍🏻

🌈Warm tips:
🔆The temperature in the cave is stable at around 18 degrees all year round, an absolute summer resort!
🔆If you bring a camera📷, remember to bring a lens cloth, the lens is easy to fog up!
🔆It's best to wear non-slip shoes, you can also bring a small flashlight, the light in the cave is dim, there is water on the ground that can easily slip, pay attention to safety when bringing children!
The cave landscape is very beautiful. It feels like walking into the underground world. It is about 30 kilometers away from the center of Jixian County and about 40 minutes by car. The whole attraction is not big, and it takes about an hour to walk down. There are light shows everywhere in this attraction, very beautiful
Ordinary weekends, there are very few people, you can drive the car directly to the parking lot. The attraction is not very big, stop and see for about an hour. The natural wonders and the lights are shining, the hole is particularly beautiful, you can go and see, if you ask a tour guide to explain it, it is better, overall, the experience is good!
Admiring the ghostly work of nature, although there are traces of artificial construction in the later stage, it is still relatively natural and as its name suggests. There are also rafting and other play matters inside, suitable for family and children and suitable for friends to travel together.
The first time I saw the stalactite cave, the natural ghost gave the Zhong Lingxiu. The stalactite has a different shape, supplemented by color light show, and the eloquence of the interpreter, full of spiritual atmosphere.
When there are few people, the experience is better. The Spring Festival is crowded and forced to stop several times in the middle. The lighting design is still very beautiful, you can take a look if you are interested. The discount on tickets during the Spring Festival is still very cost-effective, and the regular price is a bit worth the fare.
I remember coming here many years ago. This time I took my children to revisit the old place. When I went there were not many tourists. The experience was still very good. The winter in the cave was warm and cold in the summer. The weather outside was very cold, but the inside was a bit sweaty. The stone pillars inside were matched with different colors. The lights were beautiful.
It is not eye-catching to look outside, there is no hole in the sky, that is, the fare is too expensive, more than 100 tickets feel that the price is not too high, with the children and the elderly at home, I feel a little disappointed.
