This place cured my mental fatigue!
[Schoolbag] Preparations Before You Go
1⃣ Raincoat + waterproof bag (CNY 5):
"Thickened raincoat" in bright yellow (looks great in photos!)
2⃣ Clogs + old socks:
The perfect anti-slip, anti-blister combo (trust me, it doesn't hurt when you fall)
Instantly turns into slippers to wear back to the hostel after playing in the water.
3⃣ Dorm snack pack:
Bring bread, spicy sticks, and crispy noodles. We poor students will never admit defeat.
4⃣ Windbreaker:
Waterproof and warm, and can also be used as a photo prop.
[SunGlasses] Photo Tips (with captions)
1⃣ Center Shot of You Walking Through the Waterfall:
At 2pm, squat on the right side of the waterfall. The sun shines at an angle and you'll have a 90% chance of capturing a rainbow!
Caption: "Youth has no price, be crazy in the moment 🌈"
2⃣ Atmospheric Shot by the Stream:
Take off your shoes and stand on the shallows. Take a photo against the light of your feet stepping on the flowing water. It's even better if your hair is wet!
Caption: "The splashes at 20 are clearer than tears 💧"
3⃣ Silhouette Shot in the Cave:
Turn on your phone's portrait mode,
Stand sideways in the cracks of the rock wall, and instantly transform into an adventure movie!

[Mountain] Real Experience of Walking Through the Waterfall
The sound of the water is as loud as a calculus teacher calling attendance.
The icy mist blurs your face—
"Is this really walking through a waterfall? It's clearly nature's slap therapy!"
The moment my roommate and I were soaked, we screamed under the waterfall.
Anyway, the sound of the water is loud enough, so we introverts finally dared to let loose!
[Cry] Tips to Avoid Disasters
1⃣ Don't buy electric car tickets:
Hiking 5 km is the best part—the sound of the stream is the background music.
2⃣ Beware of phone assassins:
Hold your phone tight when walking through the waterfall.
3⃣ Wake up early and be happy:
Rush into the scenic area before 8:30am and take over the deserted waterfall
(Never mind if you like to sleep in)
[GoForIt] Finally, to my peers:
Some people always say, "I'll travel when I have money,"
But the recklessness of being 20, the soaked T-shirt, the screams under the waterfall,
These moments are the unique madness of youth.
"Exchange a conversation with the mountains and rivers—this is worth it!" [ThumbsUp]
