Landscape features

Baojing palace cave has not only a magnificent hall, but also a labyrinth of passages. It is also connected by multi-layer caves. Each layer of cave scenery is unique, and another layer is better than another. There are many kinds of stalactites in the cave. They are as small as a pen holder, as well as the "goose tube" in the Jade Emperor's Palace (geographically, the stalactite with vacuum inside is called "goose tube"), and as large as the huge stone pillars broken on the ground. Academically speaking, Baojing palace is also called the great achievement of the collection of cave characteristics. Limestone caves are mainly divided into two categories, one is structural cave, that is, cave formation is mainly controlled by structure; the other is external power cave, that is, cave formation is formed by groundwater dissolution, and the groundwater surface is generally flat and near horizontal, so the cave is also near horizontal, which can cut through inclined strata. Baojing palace is a combination of the two. The upper cave is a structural cave formed along the inclined plane of the rock strata, while the underground river with accumulated water at the bottom is a cave formed by external forces near the groundwater surface. In addition, the general cave can be divided into cold cave and warm cave according to the climate. The cold cave is the cave above the cave entrance. When the air cools, it deposits from the cave entrance to the bottom of the cave, so that the temperature inside the cave remains relatively cold. Even if the temperature outside the cave is high in summer, the cold air accumulated inside the cave can not escape, so it is still colder inside the cave than outside, so it is called cold cave. The warm cave is located at the bottom and the cave body is at the top. In summer, the warm air enters from outside the cave and floats up into the cave. In winter, the air is still warm and buoyant, so it can't flow out from the bottom. Therefore, in winter, the temperature in summer is still maintained in the cave, which is called warm cave. Baojing palace has a warm cave in the upper layer and a cold cave in the lower layer, which is rare in China.
