Off the beaten track
Cave of wonders
After finding out that we were traveling in Xingyi city in the southern part of Guizhou, a friend sent me a message and suggested we visit Hejia Cave in Anlong county.
"It is amazing," the message said.
After visiting a scenic site in Xingyi, I checked a navigation app, found that Anlong neighbors Xingyi and that Hejia Cave was only a 30-minute drive away, so we decided to take a look.
It was around 4 pm. The app led us onto a narrow country road. About 1 km away from the site, I saw a primary school pupil returning home.
I pulled over and asked him whether we were on the right track and close to the cave. He said he had never heard of it.
I kept driving for another five minutes and passed a village. The app told me to turn back as I had missed a turn.
