Hangzhou Huanglongdong Yuanyuan Folk Park, commonly known as Yellow Dragon Cave Folk Park, is a charming neighborhood and cultural attraction nestled at the foot of Qixia Ridge in Hangzhou's Xihu District. The park is centered around the historic Huanglong Cave (Yellow Dragon Cave), a natural limestone cave with a spring that feeds into a serene pond. Surrounding the cave are traditional Chinese gardens, pavilions, and winding paths that showcase the region's horticultural artistry. The park also features folk performances, including traditional music and dance, that celebrate Zhejiang's cultural heritage.
