The Mysterious Power of Nature - Hunan Shaoyang Hongri Machinery Factory

The Mysterious Power of Nature - Hunan Shaoyang Hongri Machinery Factory Hidden in the mountains, this old military factory is truly amazing! It was once the most mysterious military factory, with the military code of State-owned Factory 544. Hongri Machinery Factory is a miracle of the Third Front Movement, the largest cave factory in China, and the filming location of the Hunan TV show "Great Escape." Hongri Machinery Factory is built deep in the mountains, and if you fly over it, you won't be able to see it. In the past, it was a bustling place with many workers busy producing. During the war, it was a very important place. You can even imagine many people eating, dressing, living, and working here. They couldn't go out freely, and this place was a top secret. Now it has been gradually developed and opened to the public, and is worth a visit. There is also a natural karst cave inside, and the first thing you see is a bat cave. People with trypophobia should be cautious. The bats won't attack people, but their droppings have a smell. Bats are common in karst caves, and this is a large natural karst cave combined with modern architecture. The karst cave has stalactites that reflect light. The cave is very large, the largest I've ever seen, and a large part of it is still closed off. I visited here before, and it was pitch black. We used a miner's lamp to explore, like an adventure. I didn't expect it to be so big because the light could only illuminate a narrow area. I also didn't expect the top of the cave to be so beautiful and magical, like a landscape I've never seen before. There is also a place with several cannons, which are real and covered in oil. They feel very old, and the color really makes you feel like you've gone back to the war era, a time when blood was shed everywhere, a time worthy of respect. Peace won through war is especially precious!
