The deeper the boat went inside, the darker the space became. Therefore, visitors should take the initiative to bring a flashlight to be able to illuminate and take a closer look at the stalactites of various shapes. Here, you can see stalactites pouring down like hair streams, rough gray rocks or patches of moss covered on layers of rock.

Somewhere, the stalactites on the ceiling of the cave have the shape of luxuriant fruit bunches, with round and round smoke like a mother's milk, which is very interesting.
