A basketball court built inside a karst cave in Xinchun Village, southwest China’s Guizhou Province, drew online attention on Tuesday. /VCG Photo

The basketball court, 28 by 15 meters, was built inside a cave in order to save arable land. /VCG Photo

Big enough to accommodate some 1,000 spectators, it is cool in summer and warm in winter. /VCG Photo

The court was built with governmental subsidies as well as donations from residents after a safety assessment. Since it opened last December, villagers who had been lacking in venues for exercise and sports have a good place to go. /VCG Photo
