It is highly acceptable and welcomed, provided you do not block the walkways or sit with your feet pointing at the Buddha statues. Cave Number 4 (The Western Temple) and Cave Number 5 (The Great New Temple) are usually the quietest and least crowded, as tour groups spend most of their time in the massive Cave 2.

Go right when they open at 7 AM. The air inside the caves is cool and the silence is profound before the buses arrive.

Sit in the lotus or half-lotus posture to keep your feet tucked away safely. It shows deep respect.
