The cave consists of three interconnecting caves. While the cave is outside worshiping Buddha, Dark cave and Light cave are like an art space, gathering great works of sculpting of stone stalactites. Not only glittering like a rainbow, the stalactites here also change color according to the sunlight, and when you take the knocking stone, you will hear the sound like a bell.

Because there is an open space in the upper position, the door of the cave is narrowed, so whenever a strong wind blows into the cave, visitors will hear a sound like a flute. Perhaps because of that, the name called Dich Long with the meaning of "Dich" is a flute, "Long" is the wind.
