Departing from Guiyang, about a 50-minute drive brings you to Qiongdao · Tiankeng Coffee in Damu Village, Liutun Town, Xiuwen County. Relying on its unique karst tiankeng (sky-hole) landform, it ingeniously blends a natural wonder formed over hundreds of millions of years with modern leisure life, attracting many visitors to experience it and unlocking brand-new ways to relax in the mountain wilderness.

Stepping into the café, looking up you see a giant tiankeng dome—open and airy, with natural light spilling from the top and shifting patterns of light and shadow, full of atmosphere. The coffee area adopts a multi-level, staggered-platform layout, with wooden boardwalks and minimalist viewing seats extending along the mountain’s contour. The overall decor is simple and healing; soft ambient lights dot both sides of the paths, set off against the natural rock walls, and the gentle light and shadow soften the hardness of the stone, creating a tranquil, relaxed atmosphere. Each viewing point offers a different vista—you can look up close at the magnificent tiankeng rock walls, or overlook the secluded scenery at the pit’s bottom; every step reveals a new view, and novelty is everywhere.

Visitors come and go, sitting quietly on the seats with a cup of aromatic coffee, far from the city’s noise, immersively feeling the stillness of the mountains and woods. Some sit quietly to clear their minds and savor the slow life; others pause to take in the view and snap photos, freezing the tiankeng’s unique natural romance—a leisurely, contented atmosphere suffusing the whole space. This distinctive café hidden deep in the mountains is both a window displaying natural beauty and a vivid attempt at rural cultural-tourism innovation, making the mountain scenery appreciable, restful, and experiential, and becoming a gentle yet unique landscape among Xiuwen’s wild hills.

Today, with Tiankeng Coffee as a core node, Xiuwen County links up surrounding elements such as forest hiking trails, farm picking, and Bouyei ethnic folk courtyards, launching a one-day tour route of ‘coffee + hiking + farming experience + farmhouse dining.’ A single-point business format now connects agriculture, culture, and tourism—upgrading from a single check-in spot to region-wide rural consumption.
