The three characters "Guyang Cave" in regular script are engraved on the north wall of the cave. During the Guangxu period of the late Qing Dynasty, Taoism emerged in the Longmen area. Seeing that Guyang Cave had no owner, the Taoist priests could not bear to abandon it, so they changed the statue of Sakyamuni into a statue of Taishang Laojun Daode Tianzun. Because it is said that Laojun once practiced Taoism and made elixirs here, Guyang Cave is also called Laojun Cave.

There are hundreds of large and small Buddhist niches in Guyang Cave, and the carvings and decorations are very gorgeous, especially in the shape of the niches, the designs of the lintels and foreheads, which are colorful and changeable.
