About Yiyuan Rong Cave Group
A cluster of Ordovician limestone caves on the southern slope of Lushan, in Nanlushan town north-west of Yiyuan, several of which are open to visitors. The best known, Jiutian Cave, runs for about 518 m through nine halls and is noted for its unusually varied crystal deposits, especially its 'stone flowers'. Nearby Qianren (Thousand-Men) Cave yielded Palaeolithic remains in 1965 and was used by the Eighth Route Army as an arsenal in 1938–39.
