  The cave is divided into different parts. It served as a war refuge for many people during World War II. Inside the Reed Flute Cave is a spectacular world of different stalactites and rock formations shimmering with amazing colors of artificial lighting. It all creates an impressive effect!
  While walking through the cave, visitors feel like they are being transported to different environments. Some sections seem like a forest of crystal trees, while others seem like underground mountain ranges and even cities. The strange formations can sometimes seem unworldly. Many of the formations have taken on recognizable shapes of mythological creatures, or natural images. There is one formation that even looks like Santa Claus with his sack on his back. Due to the darkness of the cave, it is quite difficult to get a photograph that can express the same feeling as actually being there.
