Fairy Tale Underground River Wonderland

Underground Fairy Palace✨Complete Guide to the Chuiyun Tongtian River Adventure! The ceiling of the Tonglu cave is breathtakingly beautiful! 🚤Boat ride on the underground dark river! Stalactites glowing overhead Chuiyun Tongtian River is definitely the top attraction among caves in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai! Ride a boat through the underground galaxy, with a 3D light show that is simply divine. 📍Address: Donglin Village, Yaolin Town, Tonglu County, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province ⏰Opening Hours: October 26 - October 31: 08:00-18:30 (last entry at 16:30) November 1 - November 30: 08:30-18:00 (last entry at 16:00) 🎫Ticket: 100 RMB (includes boat ride) Must-try routes[!][!][!][!] [One] Underground Dark River Boating Board a small wooden boat into the cave! A guide at the bow leads the way. The 40-minute journey feels like traveling through the earth’s core, passing seven wonders including "Penglai Fairy Island." [Two] Time Tunnel Glass Walkway Just 200 meters after disembarking! Transparent glass overlooks the underground river. Hold the railing tight if you’re afraid of heights (not recommended for those with acrophobia). [Three] Yaolin Wonderland Light Show Two shows daily at 14:00 and 16:00! The cave transforms into an underwater dragon palace, with lasers projecting illusions of swimming whales. 📸Perfect photo spots ✔️Stone bridge at Tongtian River entrance (overhead shots of boats entering the cave) ✔️"Crystal Palace" cave hall (lights shining on stalactites are stunning) ✔️Corner of the glass walkway (photographers shoot silhouettes from the lower level) 🍜Nearby delicacies - Tonglu rice cake (Yaolin Town’s time-honored brand) - Stone pot fish ("Shanshui Fishing Village" at the scenic area entrance, incredibly fresh) - Fermented rice steamed buns (with preserved plum vegetables, a classic) ⚠️Tips to avoid pitfalls 1. Cave temperature is constant at 18℃! Bring a light jacket 2. Boat queues can be over an hour, recommend going early morning 3. The ground is slippery, wear non-slip shoes 4. Do not use flash photography (it damages the stalactites)
