Abstract: The concept of "Grotto-Heavens" in Daoism is not only the spatial construction of religious geogaphy theology, but also related to Daoist cosmology, ontology, body concept and so on. The isomorphic pattern between earth and the universe of "Grotto-Heavens" has formed a transcendence from outside to inside with the time experience of "traveling in Grotto Heavens" and the "insight vision" of God in the body, reaching the aesthetic realm of "selflessness and emptiness", and it is also the purification of life.
