Luobidong, Archaeological cave in Hainan Island, China

The entrance of Luobi Cave measures 12 meters in height and 9 meters in width, leading to a chamber covering 140 square meters of floor space.

Archaeological excavations in 1992 and 1993 revealed human remains and artifacts dating back 10,000 years, making them the oldest discovered on Hainan Island.

The cave contains wall inscriptions from the Yuan Dynasty period, with the earliest dated inscription originating from the year 1283.

Located 15 kilometers from Sanya City and 7 kilometers northeast of Lizhigou Town, the cave remains open to visitors without entrance fees.

Two large stalactites hanging from the cave ceiling resemble traditional Chinese writing brushes, which inspired the name Luobi, meaning 'hanging brushes.'
