When is the best time to go to Snow Creek Cave?

The best time to visit Xuexi Cave: The best time to travel: spring and autumn.

Guangyuan has a subtropical humid monsoon climate with four distinct seasons, abundant rainfall, and is mild and humid. The average annual rainfall is about 1,600 mm, and the average annual temperature is 16.14℃

Starting from Chaotian Town, 4 kilometers north along the deep and beautiful Qianxi River, there are two famous caves, the upper one is Longmen Cave, the lower one is Longmen Cave. It's Snow Creek Cave. It is known as the underground fairy palace. When Lu You passed through Longmen Pavilion in a storm in his later years, he once read a poem titled Snow Creek in this cave: I still traveled far away in the wind and rain, but I started to feel sad when I looked back.

Look at Longmen Inn to the north and Heiyuntou to the west.

On a dangerous road, I walk halfway across the bridge, but my walking stick leans over the torrent.

The snow stream comes from Bashan, but the declining old man stays in the green ridge.

Snow Creek Cave got its name from this. Xuexi Cave is hidden in the forest beside Qianxi River, and the scenery is very beautiful. There is a large stone wall among the towering woods, and the entrance of Snow Creek Cave is under this stone wall. In front of the cave entrance is a spacious hall with neatly arranged stone tables and stone piers, making it quiet and solemn. The two-meter-tall stone statue of Lu You in the hall is solemn. On the side of the hall, a clear stream gurgled from the bottom of the cave door more than ten feet high into the large stone cave. With a total length of more than 8,000 meters, Xuexi Cave is a scenic spot on the Jianmen Shu Road. The stone curtains, stone flowers, stalagmites and stone pillars in the cave are ingeniously crafted to resemble objects and people. Every stalactite and rock wall in the cave is an exquisite natural sculpture. The earth and heaven created this magical underground fairy palace.

As soon as you enter the cave door, you will see the Xuexi Dragon Palace under the neon red lights. Thousands of stalactites like blooming lotus flowers hang down from the sky. On the hanging lotus pond, the blue pool sparkles with golden waves. The petals are crystal clear, colorful, purple and red, which is better than the fairyland of Yaochi. At the north end of Lotus Pond is a quiet and quiet small mountain gorge. The walls of the canyon seem to be cut, the water is as clear as a mirror, and the canyon is deep and interesting. A ray of setting sun comes from the top of the gorge and shines on several piles of jade-like stalagmites on the shore of the lotus pond. It is a fascinating scene of harvest in the golden autumn evening. When you bend down and enter through the stone gate, people call it the short eaves.

Beside the stone gate, there is a golden boulder more than ten meters long, like a fat giant lying on the clear stream. More than a hundred steps along the stream, there is a small flat of more than 100 square meters. On the back wall of the small flat, a large stalactite looks down like a phoenix spreading its wings and about to fly. People call this the Phoenix Terrace, which is inside the cave. A dance hall opened. Visitors can dance and sing here. The water under the platform is gurgling, the blue waves are rippling, and beautiful music sounds are swirling in the cave. The music is harmonious. Visitors can take their partners and follow the melody of the music and enter a happy world. After walking out of the dance floor, we walked through a section of mountains and walked dozens of steps to reach Nanhai Xianci.

In front of a large platform of more than 20 square meters, there is a large stone pillar more than 5 meters high. It looks like a young girl, chic, gentle, kind and amiable. People call it Guanyin. On the top and back wall of the platform, there are many large and small stalagmites. The water drops are like drizzle, like nectar and nectar, and devout tourists drink a few drops for good luck. On another stone opposite the Guanyin Stone Pillar, stands a nearly two-meter-high stone pagoda, the Minglingshan Pagoda. Behind the pagoda is the Shenlong Pool. In the pool, there are two blue dragons and yellow dragons more than ten feet long, fighting for jewels with their teeth and claws. In front of the Shenlong Pond, there are ten thick stone pillars, known as peach trees, supporting thousands of square meters of stone walls. The walls are lined with stalactites, like lush branches, some like beards and beards, and some like drooping bead curtains.

Under the peach tree is a stone bridge, known as the overpass, which connects the two sides. The water flowing under the bridge roared like a dragon roaring and a tiger roaring. There are several stones lying or standing in the north of the bridge. Some are like lions looking up into the distance, some are like tigers pouncing on food, some are like camels strolling, and some are like Tang Monk and his disciples taking the Bible from the west. The jade pillar behind the Tiger King Stone stands on the ground and reaches the sky. According to relevant expert research, the formation of this pillar has been 13,000 years. It is called Pangu Jade Tree, which shows that they are ancient. Under the Pangu Jade Tree, there is a clear stream and a green pool. There is a strange and ancient stone in the pool, which looks like a giant turtle carrying a white jade pagoda to look at the visitors, so it is called the golden turtle carrying pagoda.

In the deep pool behind the turtle tower lies a rhinoceros stone. The stone is black and shiny, and it looks forward innocently, as if it is afraid that tourists will disturb its tranquility. There is a hill on the bank of the stream with towering peaks. There are two stalagmites on the huge black stone behind the hill. It looks like a double-peaked pagoda from the front. There are two stones at the two ends of the foot of the tower like two big toads looking at each other. It is known as the Double Toad Worship. Looking at the towers from the side, they look like lovers whispering side by side. Walking along the stream bank, walking step by step, there are many stone pillars on the stream bank, some are as white as snow, some are as bright as jade, some are pink, and some are as yellow as gold. Looking back in the hall, the Qianfoshan lotus platform is high and arched. It looks like Tathagata sitting cross-legged, and even the stalagmites standing under the stage are like thousands of devout believers, some listening quietly to the sermons, and some already understanding them, all in various poses and lifelike.

There is a small stream under Foshan, trickling for a long time, and the reflection of the bright moon is reflected in the clear and mirror-like pool. Therefore, the reflection of the moon in Shitian Pool adds tranquility to Foshan. There is a stone arch bridge on the upper stream of Tiantan, crossing the river. The road at the end of the bridge is divided into three places, which makes tourists confused. Going up the stream, the cliff cuts off the stream, and the blue stream emerges from the bottom of the cliff, rolling over the waves, and the scenery is extremely spectacular. After crossing the bridge to the right, you enter a cave with twists and turns. There are holes in the cave, which are winding paths leading to secluded areas. Cross the bridge and go straight, passing a round stone gate. In front of it is an open dam, which can accommodate more than 10,000 people. The name Makino Haruaki already illustrates the openness of the dam. There are fewer stalactites on the cave wall. Pebbles are piled up on the dam, and gravel is paved. I don't know how many years, the stream in the cave has flowed away since then.

Times have changed, and today the water has flowed out of the underground river on the side, leaving only traces of wear and wash by the water in the dam. Visitors have only walked one-fifth of the length of the cave, and the scenic scenery in the cave has already been revealed. People were left with a wonderful treat.
