Located on northern bank of the confluence of Daning River and the west mouth of the Wu Gorge, is the Lu You Cavern. As the renowned poet of Southern Song Dynasty, Lu You has visited the cave in 1170, it is named Luyou Cavern.

The cavern is composed of three ancient caves, called Qingshui (Pure Water) Cave, Jinzhu (Golden Bamboo) Cave and Yuling (Fair Forest) Cave which are all connected to each other. Among them, Qingshui Cave got its name because there is ceaseless spring flowing from the cave. A statue of Lu You is erected in the pool at the entrance to this cave and in the cave there are varieties of different shapes stalactites, which, under the irradiation of colorful lights, look attractive.

Jinzhu Cave is upon the Qingshui Cave. The two are connected by a hanging ladder of over two hundred steps. Climbing the ladder and looking down at the Qingshui Cave, you will find a different spectacle. Traditional architecture can be found outside the Jinzhu Cave where visitors over look the vista of the choppy Yangtze River and the mouth of Wu Gorge.
