General presentation
Bijie et grotte de Zhijin
Immense caves, canyons and high flower plateaus make up a major karst destination in the northwest of Guizhou.
Zhijin Cave, Wujiang River Canyon in Zhijin and High Plateaus of Bijie give the most telling landmarks of Bijie and Zhijin Cave. Together, they form a destination where urban life, mountain reliefs and natural spaces meet, with atmospheres that change over the stages rather than just one uniform decor.
See all
For a stay of 2 to 5 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. The main sites are generally easy to access.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Cave
Grotte de Zhijin
Monumental halls are home to huge limestone concretions covered by a long underground route. The place remains culturally sensitive and discovers itself with discretion, without hindering local practices; time frames, outfits and photographic rules are to be checked on site.
Nature and panorama
Canyon de la rivière Wujiang à Zhijin
Natural falsies, river and bridges extend the discovery of the karst around the Zhijin geopark. Distances, weather and access conditions must be checked before departure; water, suitable clothing and hourly margin remain useful, even during the most favorable season.
Place indismissible
Hauts plateaux de Bijie
Rhododendron forests, karst crops and reliefs cover plateaus between Bijie and Zhijin caves. An early visit to the site allows you to better observe local usages and the details of the site, while avoiding some of the groups and traffic.
