Don't miss Tongtian Grotto
Tongtian cave scenic area has a great environment and beautiful mountain trails. More importantly, you can see the tongtian grotto. It showcases ancient grotto art in China. The grotto was excavated in Tang Dynasty (618-907), with 359 stone niches from Tang and Song dynasties. One of the most impressive arts here is a reclining Buddha on a 23.66-meter red cliff, with vivid details showing people’s ardent worship of Buddhist culture then. The art treasures attracted many ancient literati, which left 128 cliff inscriptions, including poems and stories, which are of great importance for historical and artistic research.

Peaceful and tranquil
Nice walking areas. Good footpaths. Can be easily viewed without any long, steep climbs. Very peaceful and tranquil atmosphere. Generally looked after very well.

The best part of my Ganzhou trip
It took me 40 minutes from my hotel in a newly developed district to the Tongtian Cave. After I passed the main entrance, I saw a pond with lotus leaves with dozens of koi carps. The leaves in the autumn turned yellow. Two tourists were feeding the fish. A great autumn view for photo-taking. On the right of a man-made waterfall, there stood a statue of Master Wang Yangming. On the left is a footpath going up the hill. There are steps with running water next to the footpath so you can hear the sound of water and feel relaxed. The caves show visitors with sculptures of hundreds years ago and those made in recent years too. I am fond of the former ones for the better Chinese calligraphy. I have been impressed by the shape of the roots of some giant trees. Natural and Fantastic. I saw the dancing room for Mr. Jiang Jingguo and heard stories about him and his mistress who died in Guangxi. Interesting. The sleeping Buddha statue was newly made. I would prefer the original one even though it might look old and broken. Very nice walk uphill in the autumn.
