Introduction: Also known as Yizitian. It is located in a secluded canyon on the south side of Erqu Creek at the southern end of the Wuyi Mountain peaks. There is a huge rock here, just like a city wall, named Fuling Rock. The rock leans out and covers three adjacent caves. There is a crack on its top that is more than 100 feet long and less than 1 meter wide. When you lean into the cave and look up at the crack on the top of the cliff, you can see the wondrous sight of a ray of sky light. This is ‘Yixiantian’. The three caves are named Fuxi Cave, Lingyan Cave, and Fengdong Cave. They are connected front and back. The wind that enters from Yixiantian turns and exits from Fengdong Cave, blowing rapidly without stopping. Here, you will immediately feel cool. Lingyan Cave drips water all year round and forms a clear spring in a ravine, called holy water. To the south of the cave is a lofty rock named Pavilion Rock. In legend, it is called the fairy pavilion. There are many inscriptions on the rock wall. There are also other scenic spots such as Lanyan Rock and Shimen Rock. The main scenic spots here are: Pavilion Rock and Lanyan Rock (Tianxin Mingyue), Shimen Rock (Shimen Feiquan), etc. In the cracks of the cliff in Yixiantian, there are often rare mammals, white bats. Beside the cave, there is the rare square bamboo among bamboos. On the right is Fuxi Cave, in the middle is Fengdong Cave, and on the left is Lingyan Cave.


Opening hours: Open all day throughout the year. The specific business status is subject to the opening situation on that day.


Must-see tips: 1. The cave is very dark. You can bring your own flashlight. You can also rent one at the entrance. 2. Before entering the cave, wear a hat, otherwise you may receive ‘bat feces’. 3. The narrowest part is only 30 centimeters. People with a plump figure should act according to their abilities.
