Homeinns Group Hotels Near Damo Ancient Cave

Step into Damu Ancient Cave in Nanjing, where Zen whispers through thousand-year-old stones! Nestled in the mountainside, this mystical grotto is said to be where Bodhidharma meditated for nine years — natural Buddha figures on the rock walls and serene crevices will calm your soul. Don't miss climbing the moss-covered steps to hear wind and streams harmonize, or the legendary "Reed Crossing Monument" atop the hill with epic tales of Bodhidharma crossing the Yangtze on a single reed. Perfect for soul-searchers and history buffs!#HiddenZenGem
