In any season, the Reed Flute Cave is good for travelling. It is not affected by the weather. The crystal clear stalactites in different shapes in the colorful lights become more stunning. Generally speaking, it takes around 1 hour to explore the entire opened section in the cave.
In February, there are fewer tourists to visit the Yulong River as it is cold there. However, the natural landscape along the Yulong River is still attractive since most of the trees on the hills are evergreen.
