Water Curtain Cave (Journey to the West)

Culture,Tourism

Water Curtain Cave is a well-known scenic spot in Huaguo Mountain Scenic Garden. It is located on the top of the mountain, on the east side of the Reunion Palace of the Sanyuan Family Temple. It is a natural cave facing south. The cave is as wide as a hall, with clear springs hanging, dripping water from the cracks in the cliff at the entrance of the cave, and falling little by little, just like ice crystal jade balls. There are inscriptions such as "Shuijiang Cave" and "Lingquan" on the stone wall outside the cave. There are two stones on it, "God's Body Purifying" and "High Mountain and Flowing Water" in the Ming Dynasty, with bold and unrestrained strokes. This cave has been recorded in the inscriptions written by Zhang Chaorui, a literati contemporary with Wu Chengen. In Journey to the West, it is written as the hometown of Monkey King.
