Canyon Thrills & Cave Chills
Since April, the Chaotianhou scenic spot has welcomed over 350,000 visitors—a 30% jump from last year—thanks to its mix of open-air and cave rafting. Imagine navigating shimmering waters by day, then slipping into underground caves where temperatures stay refreshingly crisp. ❄️🕳️
