Benxi Water Cave

Benxi Water Cave|China's most beautiful tourist cave As a Liaoning person, I have always felt that Liaoning is a tourist desert, and there is nothing particularly worth visiting. But Benxi Water Cave far exceeded our expectations. I have to sigh, although the cities in the Northeast are collectively desolate as former industrial centers, they still have many rich tourist resources and numerous natural and cultural landscapes that are not well known to the public, and are worth slowly exploring and experiencing. Benxi Water Cave is a large dark river cave formed 400,000 years ago, with water caves and dry caves inside. The dry cave is 280 meters long, the water cave is 5800 meters long, and the underground dark river that has been developed for sightseeing is nearly 3000 meters long. After entering the cave, you can take a boat tour. The cave is very open, with a strong sense of space, and it is very deep. The boat tour takes nearly 40 minutes. It feels like sitting on a boat for a long time and there is no end. It is very emotional, and there is a long distance before the boat turns around. It is not yet developed and does not have the conditions for boat tours. The water cave is full of naturally formed and strangely shaped stalactites. Chinese people always like to give special meanings to stones. This stone is like a treasure tripod, that stone is like a double star of fortune and longevity, etc., which makes tourists involuntarily start to distinguish whether this is like a treasure tripod, whether it is like an elephant, where it is like, where it is not like, in fact, there is no need at all, it is too far-fetched, just appreciate her beauty and strangeness, there is no need to be like what, it is just a stone, that's all. Because it is a boat tour, most of the stones are far away and can only be viewed from a distance; but some stones on the river are like densely hanging swords, and you need to lower your head when the boat passes, you can touch it at close range, and feel the temperature of nature. The scale of the water cave is huge, the karst landscape is varied, there are more than 90 attractions such as "Nine Bends", "Seven Palaces", "Three Gorges". The area is 49,000 square meters, the space is more than 400,000 cubic meters, the open area is 38 meters high and 70 meters wide. The air in the cave is smooth, the water flow is endless throughout the year, the daily flow is 14,000 cubic meters, the average water depth is 1.5 meters, the deeper part is 7 meters, the constant temperature in the cave is 12°C, it is quite cold, we were shivering when we went, and we were slightly warmer by the bulging life jacket. The river is not only very winding and winding, but the river is clear and bottomless. According to the results of simple water quality analysis and full analysis, its water quality is high-quality drinking water. In 2005, it was rated as "China's most beautiful tourist cave" by China's "National Geographic" magazine, and it is the world's longest underground water-filled karst cave. Although the lights in the cave seem very tacky, when you are on the scene, apart from marveling at the wonders of nature, you can only marvel at the beauty of nature. Because the water cave is too deep and very dark, a large number of lighting facilities must be installed for lighting. -Praised as: "The stalactite peaks are thousands of scenes, the light boat is in the green water and poetry and painting; the bell show should only be in the fairy world, the only one in the world is this cave."
