Seven Stars Park in Guilin 桂林市, China 2017

Seven Stars Park is the largest comprehensive park with mass scenery in Guilin City. It was so named because of the seven peaks (the four peaks of Putuo Mountain and three of Crescent Mountain). Putuo Mountain, where Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva is worshipped, is the main body of the Seven Stars Park. It abounds with caves and pavilions. At the west end of the mountain, you will see the renowned Seven Stars Cave, which is also called Qixia Cave or Bixu Cave. With the multifarious stalactites, stalagmites and stone pillars formed by the dissolved limestone, the cave was called 'Residence of the Immortals'.
