It's a beautiful place over the bridge!


🌿Tianxing Bridge, located in the lower reaches of Huangguoshu Waterfall in Guizhou, is known as "the eternal painting drawn by the root pen, vine and ink, and the bonsai carved by the wind knife and water sword."

1️⃣🚗Transportation:
🚄Guiyang North - Anshun West, there are many trains, the journey takes half an hour. I bought the 9:52-10:21 one because I have difficulty getting up. I have personally tested that I can still finish it in one day.
After exiting the high-speed rail station, do not hesitate and find the official Anshun Bus Station. It costs 22 yuan and takes 40 minutes. It is fast, safe and stable. Don't get taken away by a black car halfway.

2️⃣💰 Scenic spot tickets:
①Combined ticket for Huangguoshu Scenic Area: 210 yuan/adult (including sightseeing bus) in peak season (March-November), 160 yuan/adult in off-season (December-February of the following year).
② Half-price discount: students and senior citizens aged 60-69 enjoy half-price ticket; children under 14 years old or under 1.4 meters, senior citizens over 70 years old, etc. are free of charge.
③ There is no separate ticket for Tianxing Bridge. You need to buy a combined ticket for Huangguoshu Waterfall, which includes the three scenic spots of Tianxing Bridge, Huangguoshu Waterfall and Doupotang. You don’t have to buy the escalator and cable car tickets first. There is a QR code scanning app on site to buy them without queuing. You can decide on the spot based on your physical strength.

VIP tickets (VIP tickets) 💰288, purchased in a separate white temporary room on site, no need to squeeze in the ticket hall, can also be purchased online in advance
The VIP shuttle bus has an exclusive VIP channel and does not need to go around long shopping streets. There are VIP centers along the way where you can enjoy air conditioning and replenish ice water. The bus can depart even if the shuttle bus is not full, so the walking distance is much shorter and it is a must-have for lazy people!

3️⃣📍Quick review of scenic spot features:
⭐️Doupotang Scenic Area
The smallest scenic spot, but I personally feel it is very good because it is spacious and there are fewer people! It’s a blessing to find a place to be in a daze~
⭐️Tianxing Bridge Scenic Area (lower half), takes about 3 hours.
①Stone forest on water: stones stand in the water, water flows among the stones, and there is a new scene at every step. You can look for the "Shushengbu" stones (365 pieces) with your birthday printed on them and make a wish.
② Silver Chain Falling Pool Waterfall: It looks like thousands of silver chains falling into a deep pool, with a shocking roar. The water volume is the largest in summer.
③ Tianxing Cave: The natural cave is densely packed with stalactites and looks like an "underground palace" under the lights.
④ Bridge on Bridge: A natural double-decker stone bridge with an underground river running through the lower level and pedestrians crossing the upper level, a geological wonder.
⭐️Grand Falls Scenic Area
There is nothing much to say about the Great Falls, it’s just the Chinese textbook coming into reality! It takes 0.5h-1h to get there (I bought the escalator version).
4️⃣⚠️Tips:
① Wear non-slip shoes + light clothing: There are many stone roads and slippery caves in the scenic area, so it is recommended to wear hiking shoes or non-slip sports shoes.
② Bring a raincoat/waterproof jacket: There is a lot of mist near the waterfall and it is easy to encounter showers in summer.
③There are few restaurants in the scenic area, so it is recommended to bring your own dry food and water.

Suitable season:
①Best time: May-June & September-October: The temperature is around 20°C, the waterfall has plenty of water and there are fewer tourists, which is suitable for taking photos.
