As one of the most popular tourist destinations in Qingyuan, especially after being named on the 2002 list of Qingyuan's Top 10 attractions, the more-than-150-year-old Taihe Ancient Cave scenic spot features perilous peaks, unique stone formations, dense forests, waterfalls, stone carvings, and winding streams.

The cave is located on Huajian Mountain of Qingxin county, about 5 km away from Qingyuan or 70 km away from Guangzhou.

The ancient cave was built in 1854. Tai He Gu Dong (four Chinese characters carved on the cave door which mean "ancient cave") was inscribed by Zhu Ruzhen, the last Bang Yan (the 2nd place winner in the imperial examination) during the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). It is a holy place for Taoism.
