The recent heatwave has continued. As cool as it may be to stay home with the air conditioning, it's nothing compared to the coolness that nature provides! We recommend you several places in Yubei to escape the summer heat on weekends with your families.

Zhangguan Water Cave, with a constant temperature of 18°C all year round

Zhangguan Water Cave

Taking pride in water, Zhangguan Water Cave, located in the middle of Mingyue Mountain, Luoqi Town, is the closest and largest cave on the outskirts of Chongqing, with an altitude of over 800 meters. You will feel cool and pleasant once stepping into it. It is a four-layer cave formed by geological movement, of which the developed one is the most spectacular, with a total length of six kilometers and a constant temperature of about 18°C.
