It&#39;s dry season now, so it&#39;s okay to visit Baizhang Waterfall. The water is pumped up by a pump, and it&#39;s quite spectacular. There are three waterfalls in total, but the first and second waterfalls are particularly beautiful.

Baizhang Waterfall, the Liu Bowen Hometown Scenic Area, is the core of a national 5A-level tourist attraction, renowned for its spectacular natural scenery and rich cultural heritage.

Here are some specific reviews:

Advantages

&bull; Magnificent Natural Scenery: Baizhang Waterfall forms a stepped, three-fold waterfall system with a total drop of 353 meters, with a single waterfall dropping 207 meters. This is the highest in China and was certified as the &quot;Highest Single Waterfall in China&quot; in 2013. The first waterfall is majestic, the second features a unique water curtain cave, and the third waterfall is wide and gentle, each with its own unique characteristics.
&bull; Rich Cultural Heritage: The scenic area is located in the hometown of Liu Bowen, who wrote a poem praising Baizhang Waterfall. Relics of related legends, such as Liu Ji&#39;s waterfall viewing platform, are also found within the area, creating a harmonious blend of natural and cultural attractions. &bull; Rich Visitor Experiences: The scenic area offers unique experiences such as immersive performances, white horse rides, and the &quot;Smashing Bowl Wine&quot; (a traditional Chinese wine-making game). It also offers Hanfu (Chinese traditional clothing) rentals, allowing visitors to transform into martial arts heroes or take photos in traditional costume, adding to the fun of the visit.

&bull; Gradually Improving Service Facilities: The scenic area is equipped with restrooms, a convenience store, hairdryers, and other amenities, ensuring better service during peak visitor traffic. These efforts, such as implementing a diversion plan and improving the shuttle bus dispatch mechanism, enhance the visitor experience.

Disadvantages

&bull; Inadequate Transportation: Public transportation is not convenient, requiring multiple transfers. Traveling from Wenzhou Railway Station or South Bus Station requires first going to Wencheng County and then transferring to the scenic area shuttle bus, which is quite inconvenient for those who don&#39;t drive.

&bull; Inadequate Information: For example, information about the scenic area&#39;s preferential policies and the location for collecting free raincoats is not prominently displayed, potentially leading visitors to miss out on these convenient services.

&bull; The tour route is somewhat challenging: if you choose the route entering from the south and exiting from the north, you will need to climb many steps, which is more difficult for tourists with poor physical strength or bad knees. In addition, some sections of the road are slippery, posing certain safety hazards.

The transportation is very convenient. You can take a bus from Wenzhou Railway Station or South Bus Station to Wencheng. The ticket price is 51. However, Wenzhou Railway Station is relatively late, with fewer trains, and South Bus Station has more. I booked a ticket at 7:50 in the morning and arrived in Wencheng at about 9 o&#39;clock. Please note! There is not one bus from Wenzhou to Baizhangxia. You need to go to Wenche Bus Station to change to the scenic area shuttle bus. But don&#39;t worry, the driver will connect you well and you won&#39;t have to pay any more. It is a small car with more than a dozen seats. It is about 15 kilometers from Wencheng County to Baizhangxia. It is a mountain road. It takes 30 minutes to reach the North Gate Visitor Center. At this time, there are two roads. The left one is the shuttle bus to Liuji Temple, and the right one is the Baizhangxia Visitor Center. If you go to Baizhangxia in the urban area, you can go to the Visitor Center to buy tickets. If you buy tickets online, you can go directly to the scenic area. But remember, you need to go to the North Gate Visitor Center to buy a return ticket in advance. There is one bus per hour from 1:00 to 4:00 in the afternoon. The ticket price is It&#39;s the same, but there&#39;s only one handwritten ticket. Remember to take it and don&#39;t lose it. Then keep walking down to the ticket gate. There&#39;s also a rental ticket for taking photos in Hanfu for 88 yuan per person. After checking the ticket, you will go to the first, second and third waterfalls in order, all down the mountain. If it&#39;s inconvenient, you can spend 20 yuan to take the elevator. The first waterfall is the most spectacular with a large drop and the most tourists. It takes the longest time to take pictures. It&#39;s the best place to take pictures of Hanfu. The water vapor is also very large and usually stays for more than an hour. Next is the second waterfall. The Water Curtain Cave is here. You can wear a raincoat and go through it to feel it. The last one is the third waterfall, which is not bad. There is a store and a hairdryer between the first and second waterfalls. Dryers and hair dryers are free. The second waterfall will usually make your clothes wet, mainly because the water from the waterfall will hit the rocks and the water will bounce back, plus the wind will make your clothes wet. But if the weather is good and sunny, it will dry quickly. Then keep walking for more than 20 minutes to the third waterfall, which has a smaller drop and the shortest stay. Go out the south gate and then take the shuttle bus to the north gate. Please note that you can only buy tickets by scanning the code at this location. There are two signs at the gate. After scanning the code, take a screenshot and save it, then verify the ticket at the ticket gate and get on the bus directly. It takes about 20 minutes to get to the north gate. The whole journey is two and a half minutes. It takes about 10 hours to get there, plus 3 hours to get to the North Gate. If you want to go to Liuji Temple, go to the parking lot on the right and take the shuttle bus. It runs once an hour and takes 25 minutes. It also costs 10 yuan. However, if you want to visit the two core scenic spots together, it is recommended to stay in a homestay near the scenic spots one night in advance and visit them the next day. It is better to visit one in the morning and one in the afternoon. If you arrive at noon and have a tight schedule,

Baizhang Waterfall is known as &quot;the highest waterfall in China&quot; and is the waterfall group with the largest drop in East China. The core waterfall &quot;Yiji&quot; is 207 meters high and more than 30 meters wide. The water pours down from the top of the mountain with a thunderous sound and magnificent momentum. In addition, the scenic area has dense vegetation and extremely high content of negative oxygen ions, making it a natural &quot;forest oxygen bar.&quot;

The Liu Bowen Hometown Scenic Area takes &quot;Liu Ji Culture&quot; as its soul. The Liu Ji Temple was built in the second year of Tianshun of Emperor Yingzong of the Ming Dynasty (1458). It is the largest and most complete existing Ming Dynasty wooden structure complex in southern Zhejiang. Inside the temple, there is a plaque with the words &quot;Temple of the Earl of Chengyi&quot; bestowed by Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Houzhao, couplets and steles inscribed by literati and poets of all dynasties, as well as an exhibition on Liu Ji&#39;s life and deeds.

The temple also preserves precious cultural relics such as the &quot;Stele of the Temple Granted to Liu Ji by Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty&quot;.

Baizhang Waterfall: The core waterfall &quot;Yiji&quot; is 207 meters high and more than 30 meters wide. It is known as the &quot;No. 1 Waterfall in the World&quot;.
