While in Huangshan we got to visit the Huashan Mystery Caves. They’re called this because no one knows why or how they were built. China is a much older country than America and has a long and rich history with no lack of knowledge about their early history, but there is no record or reference of these caves in any of the ancient texts. There are 36 caves that have been discovered so far and they have existed for around 1,700 years. They were man made by hand chiseling the stone and you realize how incredible this is once you’re inside the cave as it is pretty spacious. I really liked how the cave was lit up with different colored lights and even had lights in some of the pools of water that would change color. It was really interesting to see how precisely chiseled the stone was which goes to show how skilled these people were that made it. Maybe one day we will figure out the purpose of these caves and how they were constructed, but until then it will have to remain a mystery.
