Lianzhou Diaoxiahe, hidden in the depths of the Liannan Yao Mountains of Qingyuan, is a natural secret realm that combines karst caves and underground rivers. Take a bamboo raft through the azure waterways, with stalactites like sword formations and stalagmites like jade pillars, and stone curtains like flowing silk dancing in the interplay of light and shadow, as if entering the fairyland depicted in the *Classic of Mountains and Seas*. Fish swim through the dark river, water plants sway, and occasionally, blind fish flash between the cracks in the stone, injecting vitality into this serene world. The core scenic area “Silver River Waterfall” is famous for its three-tiered waterfall, with water curtains cascading down from a 100-meter karst cave, creating rainbows in the sunlight; the “Crystal Palace” area is filled with crystal clusters and stone flowers, like an ice palace. Visitors can explore the “Dragon Palace Secret Realm” by walking along the trail, overlooking the winding underground river like a jade belt.
