Shihua Cave II

    We continue through the cave.

This photo shows the walkway we used to cross areas with water. That is Huang Donghui in the background.

I believe this is what they call a "silver flag."

One of the large chambers.

Stalactites and stalagmites.

Self-explanatory.

Beautiful formations.

Stalactites fused into curtain-like structures.

A description of "moonmilk," first found in China here.

A deep chamber.

Like a stone waterfall.
