Reed Flute Cave

The Reed Flute Caves was a wonderful place to visit on a hot day. The caves were very cool and a great escape from the hot humid weather. Our local guide Sue told us that the locals lived in these caves during the WWII and afterwards until the government decided that the caves should be open to the public.

The name “Reed Flute” came about because the reeds used to make flutes grew at the caves entrance. There are a number of caves in the area and the caves are also used to grow mushrooms and to store wine.

The caves are lit with colored lighting which in some areas can be changed to natural colors or even turned off so that you can see the cave in natural or enhanced lighting.
