At the bank of Qiacmac River, two hills stand opposite to each other; the cave is just in the stiff that faces the river. There are three halls in the cave: the left, the middle, and the right one. The entrance to the hall is rectangular, like a door frame. The mouth of the cave in the middle is much larger, about 2 meters high and 1.5 meters wide, while those of the other two are smaller. Each of the three halls has two rooms in the front and behind separately. The room in the front is 4 meters both in length and width, and 2.5 meters in height. The one behind is relatively small, half as large as the one in the front. Both the rooms are vertically rolling roof style. Precious frescoes asunk rive are preserved in the hall in the east, on the wall of which, there are more than seventy lifelike statues of Buddha that is of different size and image. Top of the sunk rive is a huge lotus with distinguishable lotus seeds in the middle. Portraits of sitting Buddha over fifty centimeters high are painted on each side of the sunk rive. The statue wears cassocked with royal blue and reddish brown checks on it, set off by bodhi leaves. In the room behind, there is a statue of standing Buddha, the upper part of body naked, left hands down, right hand holding in front of the abdomen, clothes of the under part are red alternating with blue and green. The statues are beautifully shaped, true to life, gentle in countenance. Only the remains of a statue of sitting Buddha are in the middle hall, nothing more in the two sides, and the trace of chiseling is clear on the wall.
