Huangguoshu Waterfall

Unveiling the 'Qian' of Guizhou: Originating from ancient history and culture Among the many place names in the vast land of China, the beautiful place of Guizhou always makes people yearn for. When we delve into the history and culture of Guizhou, we will find a fascinating name - 'Qian'. So, why is Guizhou called 'Qian'? Let's unravel this mystery together. From the perspective of etymology, the word 'Qian' originally referred to a type of fish, and later generally referred to black objects in the water. Guizhou is located in a remote area where high mountains, deep valleys, and rivers intertwine. Due to its special geographical environment, the mountainous area is rainy, the sunshine time is short, and the vegetation is lush. Many mountain rivers are generally dark green or deep black, so they are called 'Qian Water' or 'Qian River'. This special water color has also become one of the symbols of Guizhou, making the word 'Qian' gradually used to represent various aspects of this region's humanities, history, culture, etc. From a historical and cultural perspective, Guizhou was historically part of the area where the Qian Kingdom was located. During the Yuan Dynasty, Guizhou established the Qianzhou Province, which was renamed Guizhou Governor's Office in the Ming Dynasty, and the Guizhou Governor's Office was established in the Qing Dynasty. The naming of these administrative divisions is inseparable from the word 'Qian', highlighting Guizhou's important position in history. In addition, the three regions of Qiannan, Qiandongnan, and Qianxinan are named after their locations within Guizhou Province, further highlighting the unique significance of the word 'Qian' in Guizhou culture. In addition to the above explanations, we can also delve into the deeper meaning of the word 'Qian'. In ancient times, people often regarded black objects in the water as mysterious and sacred symbols, because black represents depth and unknown. As a place full of mystery, Guizhou's beauty of mountains and rivers and the charm of humanities make people feel a mysterious power. Therefore, the word 'Qian' is not only a description of Guizhou's geographical environment, but also a praise and praise for Guizhou's unique charm. On the land of Guizhou, there are a variety of natural landscapes and cultural heritage. From the magnificent Huangguoshu Waterfall to the mysterious Libo Xiaoqikong, from the quaint Miao Village to the solemn Dong Drum Tower, every corner exudes unique charm. The word 'Qian' as the representative of Guizhou, even more so, these beautiful scenery and cultural heritage are condensed together, becoming the symbol and pride of Guizhou. In the long river of history, this land of Guizhou has been given a unique name - Qian. This name originated from the ancient people's name for the south, and Guizhou is located in the south of our country, so it is named 'Qian'. In addition, Guizhou has an ancient name called 'Qianzhong', because it is located in the central part of the south of our country, it is an important passage connecting the east, west, south, and north, so it is called 'Qianzhong'. Let's travel through time and space, back to the Western Zhou period, when Guizhou was a vassal state - Qian State. This country is located in today's Guizhou and Yunnan area, and was an important political center in the ancient southwestern region. The establishment and development of the Qian State left a heavy stroke in the history of Guizhou. Let's take a look at the three regions under the jurisdiction of Guizhou Province: Qiannan, Qiandongnan, and Qianxinan. These three regions are named after their geographical locations, located in the south, southeast, and southwest of Guizhou Province respectively.

🏨 Huangguoshu Waterfall ❤Recommended Reason: How can you not visit Huangguoshu Waterfall when traveling in Guizhou? If you only have one day to visit the grand waterfall, you can refer to the following itinerary 🚉Transportation Strategy: It takes about 70 minutes by high-speed train plus taxi. Depart from Guiyang at 7:03 by train to Anshun West, with a fare of 46.5 and a journey of 29 minutes. After getting off, take a taxi to the entrance of the scenic area for about 40 minutes, arriving at the grand waterfall around 9:00 to avoid the crowd. Direct bus to the scenic area costs 60 yuan, about 2.5-3 hours. Guiyang North Station to Huangguoshu Waterfall: departs at 8:10, with a journey of 2 hours and 10 minutes (traffic jams during rush hour). Guiyang Old Bus Station to Huangguoshu Waterfall: departs at 7:50, with a journey of 2.5 hours (traffic jams during rush hour). Tickets can be purchased in advance on major platforms, with both regular and VIP tickets available. It is strongly recommended for the lazy, those with poor physical strength, and those with elderly and children to buy VIP tickets! Really Fragrant: Exclusive buses within the scenic area without queuing, taking exclusive shortcuts that are not tiring. Only about 10,000 steps are needed for the whole day, while regular tickets require about 30,000 steps! 🗓Itinerary: The recommended order of visit is: Tianxing Bridge → Grand Waterfall → Steep Slope Pond. First stop: Tianxing Bridge The essence of Tianxing Bridge is in the latter half, a silver chain falling into a pool. From the stairs next to the entrance of the scenic area, go up to the second floor, then walk towards the direction of the road, and you can see the exit sign. From the exit, walk to → Gao Laozhuang (a place where many merchants sell things) → Bridge upon Bridge → Tianxing Cave → Water Stone Forest → Silver Chain Waterfall → take the cable car down the mountain (10 yuan) → after getting off the cable car, take the shuttle bus back to Gao Laozhuang, and walk to the exit. Second stop: Grand Waterfall. (After taking the escalator up, it takes about 10 minutes on foot to see the grand waterfall) Continue climbing up to the Water Curtain Cave, a raincoat is recommended for 10 yuan, and shoe covers are not necessary. It is particularly important to note that at the pavilion, when you see the sign for the Water Curtain Cave, walk towards the Water Curtain Cave, do not go to the viewing platform (otherwise you will have to go down half the mountain to the viewing platform, and then climb back up). Third stop: Steep Slope Pond, the filming location of the 1986 version of Journey to the West, with statues of the master and disciples along the way, the whole journey on foot takes about 40 minutes. 🏷️tips: 1. It is preferable to choose to stay near the scenic area. If you arrive late on the day, you can stay near the Anshun West High-speed Railway Station and take the bus to Huangguoshu Waterfall early in the morning, no need to worry! 2. Take the shuttle, escalator, and cable car whenever possible, do not walk. Even though I bought all the tickets, I still walked 20,000 steps, which is really tiring! The route can be the opposite of the travel group's route. You can take the shuttle bus at will, which can help avoid the crowd and make it convenient for everyone to check in and take photos!

Finally, I have come to the grand waterfall that I learned about in elementary school textbooks. I could never understand why mothers liked it so much until I saw the grand waterfall myself. I was truly shocked by the scene before me... Wandering along the shaded plank path, step by step towards the waterfall, until it comes into view, surrounded by mist. Along the way, you will pass many waterfall clusters, with 18 waterfalls that have distinct styles of being majestic, strange, perilous, and elegant. It's no wonder it's the largest waterfall cluster in the world!! - Suggested tour route: Huangguoshu Grand Waterfall👉🏻Tianxing Bridge👉🏻Steep Slope Pond This is the opposite order of the usual tour route, which makes it easier to avoid tour groups!!

On the way back, you must take the cable car🚡 for a stunning overhead view of the waterfall!! Leave Steep Slope Pond for last, the sunset there can really move you to tears!! - tips: Travel in the opposite direction to avoid crowds, and make sure to rush for the 'VIP service'‼️ Save transfer time and go directly to the attractions. Each important waterfall spot has a VIP channel, so there's no need to queue!! Go directly to the lower half of Tianxing Bridge without tiring your legs!! Each spot has a VIP rest area, where you can relax while waiting for the bus, with drinking water, coffee, fruit, and small cakes all available to show off!! It's very suitable for bringing children and the elderly, the whole journey is not tiring, and it saves a lot of time by avoiding detours!!

It's strange to say, the Huangguoshu Waterfall is so famous all over the world, and yet this is my first time coming here. The Huangguoshu Waterfall truly lives up to its reputation. The vast scenic area is dotted with waterfalls of various sizes. You can witness the grandeur of the large waterfall cascading down three thousand feet, and also experience the delicate beauty of the smaller waterfalls, like threads of jade drawn across gullies and clear springs resting on rocks. The diversity of the landscape is not just in the varying heights and distances of the mountains and waters, but also in the crisp sounds of water striking the emerald stones and pine trees. If this isn't a 5D movie that brings the experience to life, then what is? In the beautiful Guizhou with its lovely mountains and waters, it's really easy to lose oneself. Nature's gifts are just too wonderful.

Huangguoshu Waterfall is the largest waterfall in Asia and the largest cluster of waterfalls in the world! It was a surreal visit and one that I will never forget. We left early and I would recommend this to avoid the busy crowds. We took a taxi from our hotel to the ticket office. Tickets cost 220rmb including entry to the falls and the shuttle buses. The first shuttle bus takes you to a lovely scenic park, home to a rushing river and waterfall. When you are ready, you can take the shuttle bus to the second location. A beautiful park with endless rivers, streams and lakes. You can walk through caves and narrow rock passages to take in the amazing views. The next shuttle bus takes you through the park to Huangguoshu Waterfall - the star of the show! Before walking down to the waterfall, you can enjoy the bonsai garden and water lily lake. Huangguoshu falls are truly breathtaking and a once in a lifetime experience. You can get very close to the waterfall meaning you get very wet - be sure to bring or buy a rain coat on site. On a sunny day, there will always be a rainbow above the falls which was incredible to see. You can then take a long walk to the waterfall caves where you are able to ‘walk through the waterfall’. There are a number of different food and drink vendors at each site of the waterfall park. There are also a wide range of shopping opportunities on the way out if you would like to buy something to remember the day by. #naturalwonders #waterfall #awesomepic #summervacation #summervacation

| Huangguoshu Waterfall. In the morning, I took the high-speed train from Guiyang North at 7:33, and arrived at Anshun West at 8:02 After exiting Anshun West, follow the signs for Huangguoshu to the transfer station (about 5-8 minutes), buy a ticket at the service desk and take the bus (22 yuan/person), which takes about 30-40 minutes. After getting off the bus, walk to the entrance of the scenic area (3-5 minutes) Scenic Area Ticket: Guangdong residents are still free, sightseeing car 50 yuan/person, other tickets can be temporarily not bought, they are available inside. There are three attractions in total: Huangguoshu Great Waterfall - Tianxing Bridge - Steep Slope Pond (Note that the sightseeing cars inside are one-way, with Steep Slope Pond being the closest, the Great Waterfall the farthest, and Tianxing Bridge in the middle. I went to the Great Waterfall first, so to go to Tianxing Bridge for the second stop, I had to go back to Steep Slope Pond first) First Stop: Huangguoshu Great Waterfall After the sightseeing car arrived at the Great Waterfall, we didn't take the escalator down, but walked down the stairs directly. Along the way, you can see the waterfall from a distance, and it's not tiring at all except for the strain on the knees. Along the way, you will see viewing platforms one after another, and finally go to the Water Curtain Cave (you can bring a raincoat in advance). After passing through the Water Curtain Cave, take the escalator to the starting point of the sightseeing car (escalator 30/person, round trip seems to be 50/person). Although it's only a 2-3 minute ride, I really didn't want to walk any extra. Second Stop: Tianxing Bridge I did some research and heard that the upper half of Tianxing Bridge is quite boring, so I only went to the lower half. After arriving by the sightseeing car, don't swipe your ID card to enter!! Walk to the left and go up the stairs!! It's right above the ticket checkpoint!! Keep walking straight (you will see many people walking in the opposite direction along the way, because if you only walk the lower half, the way in and out will overlap a bit). Along the way, you will see the Ponytail Waterfall - fruit-selling aunties - McDonald's KFC, and then you officially start walking the lower half. After reaching the Tianxing Bridge attraction, you can take the cable car back according to the signs for 10 yuan/person. After taking the cable car, a sightseeing car will take you to Gaolaozhuang, near where the fruit-selling aunties are, and you start walking the repetitive part of the way in. Finally, take the bus back to the entrance of the scenic area at Tianxing Bridge Station, because I didn't go to Steep Slope Pond. After returning to the entrance of the scenic area, also take the bus to Anshun West Station, the same 22 yuan/person, 30-40 minutes. Time: I walked a bit faster, arriving at Anshun West Station at 8:10 in the morning, and was back inside Anshun West Station at 15:25 in the afternoon. Remember to reserve 40 minutes for the bus ride from the scenic area to the high-speed rail station. The bus normally runs every 30-40 minutes, but sometimes it will depart early when full, so it's best to reserve more time, otherwise, you might miss the high-speed train. Overall: I feel that going to the Great Waterfall for the first stop is better, avoiding the crowd, and going to take beautiful photos first. If you go to Tianxing Bridge first, you'll probably be completely exhausted afterwards. Recently it's the dry season so there aren't too many people, avoiding the crowd for a better experience!

The Huangguoshu Waterfall in January, the feeling of having the whole place to yourself, is worth it! The picture shows the waterfall on January 5th, there were very few people when we went, all the attractions felt like they were exclusively ours Huangguoshu Waterfall has three attractions: the big waterfall, Doupo Pond, and Tianxing Bridge, note that tickets need to be booked one day in advance The sightseeing car ticket is 50 per person, you have to buy it, only by taking the sightseeing car can you reach the attractions The big waterfall escalator is 50 per person, it is recommended to buy it, the escalator is really long, climbing up and down can be tiring. The Tianxing Bridge cable car ticket is 10 per person, this depends on your own situation The official recommended route is Tianxing Bridge-Big Waterfall-Doupo Pond, but we didn't go to Tianxing Bridge, first because we were in a hurry; second, after reading other guides, there is basically nothing to see in the first half of Tianxing Bridge, walking is tiring and time-consuming; third, the second half has the Silver Chain Waterfall, but it is now the dry season, the water flow is not large, after you have seen the big waterfall and Doupo Pond waterfall, the Silver Chain Waterfall is nothing. Big Waterfall: 2h in total It is now the dry season, the water flow is not large, the water flow may be smaller at the end of January, no need to wear a raincoat. Climbing up the steps you can see the famous Water Curtain Cave, where you can reach out and feel the grandeur of the waterfall pouring down. Doupo Pond: 1h in total Doupo Pond is not big, walk to the very end and you will see the most important Doupo Pond beach waterfall, it is not as high as Huangguoshu Waterfall, but it is much wider, we arrived at more than three in the afternoon, there were only two or three people, you can take pictures as you like Reminder for the sisters, this season Guizhou has a lot of fog and overcast days, choose a clear day to come to this kind of natural scenic area, and try to come around noon, around 12 o'clock the thick fog will disperse, the sun may come out, if you are lucky, you can see a rainbow at the big waterfall around one or two o'clock

I finally visited the great waterfall that I've seen in the elementary school textbook. I could never understand why mothers liked it so much until I saw the waterfall myself. I was truly shocked by the sight before me... Walking through the shaded trails, step by step towards the waterfall, until it comes into view with mist swirling around. Along the way, there are many groups of waterfalls with different styles - majestic, strange, dangerous, and elegant. 18 in total, truly deserving of being the world's largest group of waterfalls!!

Leaving the Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village in Guizhou, after a three and a half hour drive, I arrived at the Huangguoshu Waterfall Scenic Area. As the penultimate stop on my self-drive trip from Shanghai to Yunnan, and the last major attraction, I present this travel guide. Accommodation: There are hotels and homestays of different grades around the scenic area. I stayed at the Huangguoshu Kaiyuan Mingdu Resort Hotel through Ctrip, which is one kilometer away from the Huangguoshu Scenic Area. Newly opened in 2024, Ctrip's three-day, two-night presale package was just over 800 yuan, quite a bargain. This time, the hotel upgraded me to a balcony view room for free, which was very luxurious and comfortable. Dining: There are quite a few restaurants outside the scenic area, just a ten-minute walk from the hotel. I recommend Guizhou specialties such as sour soup fish, bamboo fungus chicken soup, and garlic wild vegetables, all reasonably priced. If you don't want to go out, the hotel offers takeout. It's still advisable to bring some dry food and water when entering the scenic area, as it will definitely be more expensive inside, and the choices and tastes are hard to describe. Tickets: The scenic area ticket includes three attractions for 160 yuan, plus a scenic shuttle bus between the attractions for 50 yuan, totaling 210 yuan. There is an elevator in the Great Waterfall area that costs 30 yuan one way, which you can choose to walk instead. If you have limited physical strength, you can opt for the elevator. The Tianxing Bridge area has a cable car for 10 yuan, which can save some walking distance. The ticket price is a bit expensive, and some tourists, like myself, only chose to visit the Great Waterfall area, which is not very cost-effective. Tour Route: First, let's talk about the average playing time for the three attractions. The Great Waterfall area takes about two hours, not counting the peak season, when just queuing for the Water Curtain Cave can take one or two hours; Tianxing Bridge takes 2-4 hours, divided into the upper and lower sections. Many tourists only choose to play in the upper section due to physical strength issues, which is about one or two hours to Gao Laozhuang and then return. However, I personally suggest either completing the whole journey or not going at all, as the core attractions of the entire scenic area, Tianxing Cave and Xingxia Waterfall, are in the lower section. Since there is no way back after passing Gao Laozhuang into the lower section, completing the whole journey takes nearly four hours and is a real test of physical strength. Steep Slope Pond takes about one hour, mainly featuring the filming location of 'Journey to the West' and a Steep Slope Pond waterfall. The attraction is not large and relatively average. Based on the above situations, many people choose to go to Tianxing Bridge first to tackle the more difficult part, then to the relatively easier Great Waterfall, and finally decide whether to go to Steep Slope Pond based on their physical strength. This time, I went straight to the Great Waterfall first. After watching it, I assessed my condition, and since I had a bit of a cold and fever recently, I gave up on the Tianxing Bridge and Steep Slope Pond areas. However, I don't feel regretful, as I visited the most essential attraction, and the other two were just part of the package, so it doesn't matter if I didn't visit them. Ps: Now is not the peak season with the highest water flow. At the entrance to the scenic area, there are many vendors selling raincoats. Personally, I suggest that unless it's a rainy day, walking through the Water Curtain Cave will only get you a few water droplets, but it's not a big deal, so there's no need to wear a raincoat as they suggest for the Great Waterfall Water Curtain Cave experience.

Interesting life, half of it is mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas... This half should include Huangguoshu Waterfall. Before you go 1. Huangguoshu Waterfall is not a single attraction, but a large scenic area that includes Tianxing Bridge, the Great Waterfall, and Doupo Pond. The attractions are quite far apart from each other and are connected by shuttle buses, so be sure to purchase a ferry bus ticket. 2. The high-water period of Huangguoshu Waterfall is from May to October every year, during which the waterfall is even more spectacular. Scenic Spot Business Card 1. Huangguoshu Waterfall The Great Waterfall is the center of the entire scenic area and the core spot for visiting (recommended visit time is 2-3 hours). The waterfall is 77.8 meters high, with the main fall being 67 meters high; the waterfall is 101 meters wide, with the main fall top being 83.3 meters wide. Huangguoshu Waterfall is an erosion gap type waterfall in karst topography. It is the largest in Asia and the third largest in the world. Due to the large drop, the water cascades down from the cliff, making a huge noise, and the scene is very spectacular. Behind the waterfall, there is a water curtain cave, and passing through it, you can see the rainbow over the Rhino Pool, which is absolutely beautiful. 2. Tianxing Bridge Tianxing Bridge is located at the very inside of the entire scenic area, divided into upper and lower sections, and is the most tiring and time-consuming of all attractions (about 3-4 hours). The upper half is mostly artificial scenery, reaching Gao Laozhuang, you can choose to exit or continue to visit the lower half. Of course, the lower half is the essence, with the Yinchuan Waterfall and the caves in the lower half. 3. Doupo Pond Doupo Pond is located on the outermost part of the entire scenic area and is the waterfall with the widest top among the Huangguoshu Waterfall group. It is also the filming location for the river crossing scene of Master Tang and his disciples in the 1986 version of 'Journey to the West'. This spot takes less time to visit (about 1 hour). Basic Strategy 👣Route suggestion: Tianxing Bridge - Great Waterfall - Doupo Pond (The scenic sightseeing car stops at Doupo Pond - Great Waterfall - Tianxing Bridge in succession, starting from the farthest Tianxing Bridge and moving outward is relatively reasonable, because in the end, you need to take a bus back to Guiyang from the outermost parking lot); if it is a two-day trip, it is relatively more relaxed, and you can put the Great Waterfall or Tianxing Bridge on a separate day. Ticket: Adult ticket full price + sightseeing car 220 RMB/person; Guizhou province residents full price + sightseeing car 140 RMB/person (Tianxing Bridge cable car ticket and Great Waterfall escalator ticket can be decided on-site based on need; scenic area pass is valid for 3 days) ⏰Opening hours: 1. Doupo Pond, Great Waterfall: 07:30—18:00 2. Tianxing Bridge: 07:30—17:30 🚦Transportation: 1. Self-driving: About 2 hours from Guiyang city center 2. Train + Bus: Take the high-speed train from Guiyang North Station to 'Anshun West Station', and there is a bus to Huangguoshu Waterfall at the station; take the train from Guiyang Railway Station to 'Anshun', transfer to Anshun East Bus Station, buy a bus ticket to Huangguoshu at Anshun East Bus Station, or directly carpool to Huangguoshu Waterfall scenic area from the train station 3. Direct bus: Take an air-conditioned bus directly to Huangguoshu Waterfall scenic area from Guiyang city center (after booking the bus, the driver will contact you to inform you of the boarding place, usually at the entrance of Guizhou Hotel on Beijing Road, where there is a breakfast cart from Guizhou Hotel, you can buy some breakfast). Tips 1. You may want to bring a portable raincoat, which might be needed when passing through the water curtain cave. 2. Wear a pair of comfortable non-slip shoes, the scenic area is large, and you will need to walk for a long time, and some places are quite slippery. 3. Take protective measures, the ultraviolet rays in Guizhou are really high. 4. Bring some food and water, as the prices inside the scenic area are relatively high.
