Shun Huangyan, at first glance, thought it was a stone, and did not think it was a cave. Just like its discovery, full of surprise. For thousands of years, a flat and unpretentious small stone mountain stands in the eastern foot of Shunhuang Shanshan, Demiaokou Town, Dong'an County, and it is unknown. Until 1984, a farmer who went up the mountain to chopped wood was unintentionally transferred into this underground cave in order to catch up with a wild rabbit.

According to the research of geologists, the cave has a history of more than 100 million years. The ancient cave has caves and twists and turns in the cave. It is more than 700 meters long. Under the hard stone mountain, it takes out a huge space of 12,000 square meters to give people a secret and deep feeling.

"Shunnan collapsed in the field of Cangwu and was buried in the nine nine of the Jiangnan." According to legend, Emperor Shun toured to Dong'an in his later years. Seeing that the place was stacked, the scenery was picturesque, and he entered the mountains and hunting. Therefore, the name of the mountain is called Shunhuang Mountain. The "Unified Chronicle" in Hunan Province Yongzhou Government's "Literature and Arts" contains: "Yongzhi Dong'an has Shunfeng, Yu Haiyuan, and all worshiping Yu family, Dong'an nearly nine times, because of the Scriptures of Shunnan Patrol."

Faced with this magical cave that was suddenly discovered, the locals piously believed that this was a time to inspect the people during the tranquility of Shunhuang Mountain, and for the sake of convenience. Therefore, the hole is named Shun Huangyan.

It is said that there is a trace. Let's follow the steps, under the weird rocks and bright colored lights, the former palace scenery seemed to be in front of us. Although it is an underground "Beginning", there is still a lot of royal style. There are four palaces and eighteen halls in the cave. Stone flowers, stone mantles, stone lotus, stalagmites, rowing row, latex, milk columns, milk drums, and milk clocks are full of attitude.

The front palace of Shunhuang Rock is hung high in the stone veils, and it is stacked and scattered. Like Zhang Lancai, it is known as the welcoming hall. As the main palace, the middle palace has an Qingtian stone pillar that has been pulled up. I do n’t know how many years of flowing the water, and it has grown into the standings now. The two rocks exactly like tigers and white dragons, and the temperament of the dragon tiger. The stone pillars of the Garden Garden in the harem are upright and dense, like the ancient wooden sky, and the stone flowers are lifelike. Like a tree osmanthus, rhododendron and camellia, they are blooming ... There are hundreds of stalagmites and stone pillars in the west palace. Deep.

Although it is difficult to distinguish between true and false, the brilliant legend that has been shaped for thousands of years has made future generations amazing.
