Silver Cave

Silver Cave (Chinese: 银子岩; pinyin: yín zi yán) is a national AAAA level scenic spot in Lipu County, Guilin City, Guangxi Province of China, 85 km from Guilin and 18 km away from Yangshuo.[1]

Silver Cave is the typical karst landscape, running through 12 hills. The cave is a floor-type cave, with three layers and more than ten scenery spots and different typles of stalactites, which are crystal clear and sparkling like silver, thus providing the area with its common name. The most three famous scenic areas include snow-mountain with waterfall (Chinese: 雪山飞瀑; pinyin: xuěshān fēi pù), music stone screen (Chinese: 音乐石屏; pinyin: yīnyuè shí píng), and Jade Pool Wonderland (Chinese: 瑶池仙境; pinyin: yáochí xiānjìng). In the early 1999, it was listed as one of "Guilin tourism scenic spot of civilization demonstration".[2]

There is a Chinese proverb: "anyone who has been to Silver Cave would never short of money".
