## About Reed Flute Cave

Walking into Reed Flute Cave is like drawing back one curtain after another, and with each passage you will feel as though you have stepped into another world. Thousands of rock formations, each with its own character, are magnificent, sacred or eccentric, and a slow stroll will leave you full of wonder. The Crystal Palace is the grandest part of the cave, and its stalactites closely resemble the scene of the Monkey King (孙悟空) raiding the Dragon King’s palace in the East Sea, full of mythological charm. However, the cave shows considerable human alteration and its ticket is relatively expensive, so those who are not keen on such caves may wish to skip it.
