Located in Bo Hon Island, to reach the cave entrance you need to hike up a steep path. It consists of two chambers, a small one known as the ‘waiting room’ and a second, big enough to hold 1,000 people, has stunning stone formations that look like sentries standing in a line and a rock that looks like a general commanding his troops

Both chambers are filled with flowstones, stalactites, stalagmites, and limestone columns that have formed over millions of years. The light from outside streams across the water making flickering patterns on the walls of the cave, creating a spectacular light show.
