China’s Hidden Underground Caves – We Had No Idea This Existed!

Discover the secrets of Quzhou, Zhejiang – an incredible off-the-beaten-path destination in China hiding a 2,000-year-old unsolved mystery! Join us as we explore ancient villages lost in time, hike stunning UNESCO World Heritage mountains, and delve into the enigmatic Longyou Caves, a mystery that baffles experts.

In this China travel vlog as part of our China Roadtrip Series, we take you on an adventure just a short trip from Hangzhou:

Nianbadu Ancient Town: Step back in time in this historic gateway town between Zhejiang, Jiangxi, and Fujian. Discover its rich military past, traditional architecture, intricate wood carvings, and taste local street food.

Jianglangshan Mountain: Hike through breathtaking Danxia landscapes at this stunning UNESCO World Heritage Site. We share the legends of the three peaks and the incredible views (plus tips on getting FREE entry!).

Qing Yang Mao's Cultural Village: Visit the ancestral home of the Mao family and explore its unique history and architecture.

Longyou Caves: Uncover the biggest mystery! Explore these massive, ancient man-made sandstone caves dating back over 2,000 years. Who built them? Why? We look at the strange carvings and conspiracy theories – aliens, lost civilizations? What do YOU think?

Quzhou City: Experience the charm of this ancient walled city, walk along the river walls, and enjoy local life and delicious food (including the famous duck head!).
