❤️Huangguoshu Waterfall, located in Zhenning Buyi and Miao Autonomous County, Anshun City, Guizhou Province, is China's largest waterfall and one of the world's most famous waterfalls. With a height of 77.8m and width of 101m, it presents a magnificent spectacle with thunderous water sounds. The best time to visit is from May to October when the water volume is at its peak, making the waterfall most impressive.
❤️Main attractions in the scenic area include the Grand Waterfall, Water Curtain Cave, and Doupotang Waterfall. The Grand Waterfall is the core attraction, offering stunning views from multiple observation decks. The 134m-long Water Curtain Cave behind the waterfall lets visitors experience its power up close. Doupotang Waterfall, 105m wide, was featured in the ending scenes of the 1986 TV series "Journey to the West."
❤️For transportation, take a high-speed train from Guiyang to Anshun West Station, then transfer to the scenic area shuttle (approx. 2hr total). The entrance ticket includes sightseeing buses, and we recommend spending 4-5hrs exploring. Local delicacies like sour fish soup, Siwawa (local snack), and mutton rice noodles are must-tries. Accommodation options include nearby hotels or returning to Anshun city. Visitors should stay safe, especially during rainy seasons when paths may be slippery.
