According to a legend, Reed Flute Cave got its name because the reed by the cave's mouth could be made into flutes.
The length of the Reed Flute Cave is 240 meters and offers a majestic fairyland of karst caves with landscape and rural scenery. It is a magic fairyland of stalactites, stalagmites, stone pillars, stone curtains, birds, plants and animals in fantastic shapes and colors, all glistening in colorful lights.

One grotto, which called the Crystal Palace of the Dragon King, can hold about 1000 people.
The highlight in this cave is a great slab of white rock hanging from a ledge like a cataract, with a human-shaped stalactite on the opposite side. It is said that a visiting scholar tried to write a poem depicting the beauty of the cave. It took him so long to find the right words that he finally turned to stone.

The cave was opened to public in 1962. Famed as the Palace of Natural Art , the cave is now equipped with artificial lighting system to emphasize visual effect.
