Huangguoshu Waterfall in Guizhou, the real-life version of the Water Curtain Cave in Journey to the West

#Waterfall #100 Ways to Travel

When it comes to the largest waterfall in mainland China, the first thing that comes to mind is the #Huangguoshu Waterfall. This waterfall, known as the largest waterfall in Asia, is a huge waterfall group consisting of 18 waterfalls on the ground and 14 waterfalls under the surface. It is so majestic and magnificent that it cannot be ignored!

Huangguoshu Waterfall is famous not only for its unique karst natural landform, but also for being the filming location for the Chinese TV series "Journey to the West". It got its name from the yellow fruit trees growing on both sides of the river, and thus became the "Water Curtain Cave in Huaguo Mountain", the hometown of Sun Wukong in the TV series.

The real-life version of the Huangguoshu Waterfall actually has a tourist attraction called the Water Curtain Cave! The Water Curtain Cave is a cave located behind the main Huangguoshu Waterfall. It has six cave windows, five cave halls, three cave springs and six passages, running across both sides of the waterfall. Due to the strong moisture from the waterfall, you will still get soaked even if you wear a raincoat after walking around the Water Curtain Cave, but you are lucky to see a rainbow.

Huangguoshu Waterfall is located in Guizhou, and transportation is really inconvenient, so I chose to travel with a group. Although the itinerary is fixed, the tour bus pick-up at least solves the transportation problem.
