Avoid the crowds without leaving Sichuan and come here~ The karst landscape is stunning

Don't leave Sichuan‼️ Avoid the crowds and come here~ The karst landscape is stunning If you are planning a journey deep into geological wonders, Xingwen Shihai will be a destination full of shock and surprise. This stone forest, which integrates stone sea, tiankeng (sinkholes), caves, hanging coffins, and Miao culture, is like an "open geological textbook." 📍Navigation: Xingwen Shihai Cave Township Tourist Area 🚄 High-speed rail: Get off at Xingwen Station (there is a direct shuttle bus from the high-speed rail station to the scenic area) 🕐 Opening hours: 8:30-17:30 (last entry at 16:30) Core highlights of the scenic area 1️⃣ Tianquan Cave A perfect photo spot with Tyndall light whenever the sun is out! It is recommended to visit at noon when the lighting is best. 2️⃣ Monkey Pool A forest of stones fully showcasing the strange karst landforms. Taking photos from afar with a telephoto lens produces amazing shots! 3️⃣ Stone Sea Waves The stones overlap like waves, stretching for miles. This stone forest wonder looks like an "alien planet" and is perfect for photos. 4️⃣ The Great Funnel (World-class Tiankeng) A giant sinkhole 650 meters long and 208 meters deep, twice the size of the Arecibo sinkhole in the United States. Walk along the plank road to the bottom of the pit and look up to see the amazing "viewing the sky from the bottom of a well" scene. 5️⃣ In addition to natural landscapes, many new entertainment projects have been added in the scenic area, such as: Permian slide, go-karting, popular small train, grass skiing, stone sea zipline, rock climbing, archery, via ferrata, and high-altitude activities.
