The largest and deepest natural sinkhole on the planet is called Xiaozai Tiankang.
It is located in the heart of China, Penji. This fantastic sinkhole is completely natural and reaches a depth of 662 meters and a width of 537 meters.
But the most striking thing is the explosion of life that it contains. What confuses geologists due to the effects of water is Xiaozai Tiankang. In this case, it was formed at the top of a cave, where an underground river, 8.5 kilometers long, flows into a magnificent waterfall. Its enormous size makes it the deepest sinkhole in the world.
It is home to about 1,300 species of plants and wildlife. Among the most fascinating βtenantsβ of the underground forest is the misty panther, known to the locals since ancient times.
