Huashan Mountain Mysterious Grottos |
Located in the eastern suburbs of Huangshan city, this scenic area, 12 km from the downtown of Huangshan city, is a comprehensive tourist attraction with connotations.
It is the largest ancient man-made grotto group ever discovered in China. There are 36 grottos of varied sizes, all of which were constructed in the ancient time. Inside the grottos are numerous fine patterns left by the ancient workers.
The grotto group lines up at the foot of Huashan Mountain by the Xin'an River. Their structures are unusual, and their inner cavities, enormous. For example, some grottoes have another one inside; some are filled with stone pillars; the others contain only tranquil pools, with neither mural paintings and Buddhist statues nor carved words. Two grottoes are even more amusing—they have their exits and entrances opening directly into the waters of the Xin'an River!
