Cuiyan

Cuiyan is located in the central part of Xiqiao Mountain. It is a funnel‑shaped canyon that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. The main attractions within the scenic area include Wuye Well, Cuiyan, Cliff Inscriptions, Hulu Well, Xieyan Spring, and the site of Li Erqiao’s Study Room.

Biyu Cave

Biyu Cave is situated between the Zhu and Yu peaks in the northeastern part of Xiqiao Mountain. It is an east‑west trending cliff canyon. Both sides feature steep cliff walls with scattered trees and shrubs. The valley bottom is covered with jagged rocks, and the canyon path is rugged. There are caves within caves, creating a secluded and serene atmosphere, earning it the reputation of being “the finest scenic spot in the east of the mountain.” Attractions in the cave include Yuyan Pearl Waterfall, Tingyu Study Room, Yuxian Bridge, Chuiyun Rock, and East Tianhu Lake.

Baiyun Cave

Baiyun Cave is located at the northern foot of Xiqiao Mountain. First established during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, it is one of the 36 caves of Xiqiao Mountain and is known as the hub of the Xiqiao Mountain Scenic Area. There is a saying: “To grasp the beauty of Xiqiao, first visit Baiyun Cave.” The entire cave is divided into three grotto heavens and twenty‑four scenic spots. Over the centuries, scholars, officials, and literati have left behind a wealth of cultural relics and historic sites in Baiyun Cave, including a number of Ming and Qing dynasty buildings and cliff inscriptions, such as Sanhu Academy, Kuiguang Tower, and the Chinese Character Mini‑Exhibition Hall. Among them, the Flying Waterfall of a Thousand Feet was listed as one of the “Eight Scenic Spots of Guangzhou” during the Qing Dynasty.
