Dragon King Cave (龙王洞) @ Zhangjiajie (张家界), Hunan, China



A huge, deep cave full of stalagtites and stalagmites, the beauty of this cavern is further enhanced by the spot lighting of various colors.


With the additional splash of coloring, the otherwise boring structures are shown in an entirely different light. 


The 4 big halls have huge columns that support the cave and contain various compartments of the dragon king's palace; hence the name Dragon King Cave.

Mythical of course lah!!
Dragon Kings live in water lor!!



Intitially capitivated by the dazzling limestone formations, my interest slowly diminished with each additional step deeper into the cavity!

Beads of sweat started appearing on my forehead and the journey seemed endless even though it was merely a 3.6 kilometers walk!



Two words to sum it all; celestially tiring.
