The Kongshan Baiyun Cave is located to the west of the Lincheng County Seat, 50 kilometers away from Xingtai City. The local geography has created great cave formations.

In this over-4,000-square-meter cave, there are five interconnected halls and over two hundred scenes in which the stalactite, the stalagmite, the sheet, the stone waterfall can be seen. ranging from 8 meters wide to ones only several millimeters in diameter. Some even have the animal shapes of the parrot, lion, tiger and so on. Most strikingly, there are some scenes, which can hardly be found elsewhere in China such as “Jade Hairpin Pointing at a Precious Bottle”, “one Stick Heading Toward the Sky”, “Jade Pillar Holding up the Sky”, and “Net-Form Curled Stone”. Furthermore, the ancient stalagmite group found on the ridge of the Kongshan Hill is unique in China and even rare in the world, for there has not been a similar discovery in other countries. They are very valuable for the research on the ancient climate, crust, and geological changes.
