Scenic Spot Introduction: With a spirit of adventure, follow the gravel path deep into the Buddha's Hand Cave, where you can feel the cool temperature and observe the natural sea-eroded cave landscapes along the way. The Buddha's Hand Cave gets its name from the rock wall deep inside, which features a natural weathered formation resembling a palm, with clear knuckle lines, strikingly similar to the hand of the Buddha. The Buddha's Hand Cave's natural sea-eroded landscape is exceptionally well-preserved. It was once home to bats, leading to its early name, 'Bat Cave.' This natural sea cave was also used as an air-raid shelter during the Japanese colonial period. Today, it has been developed into a cultural landscape area with lighting, making it perfect for a fun family adventure. Visitors can admire the natural wonders and learn about its unique historical background. Scenic Spot Features: Inside the Buddha's Hand Cave, there are several different passages. Walking through the cave passages feels like entering an ancient adventure game, leading to various grottoes. The winding and intricate passages resemble a maze, adding a touch of mystery. Upon reaching the deepest part of the cave, you can look up and see the Buddha's Hand imprint, offering a fantastic experience akin to stepping into a mythical story. As a natural cave, the Buddha's Hand Cave is prone to dripping water during rainy weather, and the paths can become slippery. Visitors should pay attention to their footing for safety. Recommended Activities: Embark on a safe and fun grotto adventure! Wear comfortable walking shoes, watch your step, and delve deeper into the cave to find the Buddha's Hand imprint. Along the way, you can carefully observe the natural sea-eroded rock walls. Buddha's Hand Cave is very close to Xiandongyan (Immortal Cave), so you can visit both together for added enjoyment! Nearby Recommendations: When visiting Buddha's Hand Cave, you can also take a leisurely walk to the nearby Xiandongyan (Immortal Cave) and Qiuzi Mountain Lighthouse for more adventurous fun. Additionally, you can visit the nearby Keelung Lighthouse to complete a 'two lighthouses in one day' challenge.
