Wanfenglin Scenic Area is located in the southwest of Xingyi, Guizhou, in the heart of southwestern Guizhou on the southeastern edge of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. Its southern end borders Guangxi; to the west it reaches Sanjiangkou at the junction of Yunnan, Guangxi, and Guizhou; to the north it adjoins the main peak of Wumeng Mountain. The peaks rise to 1,600 m, with an average elevation of 1,200 m, and forest coverage of 68.5%. Covering a total area of more than 2,000 sq km, it is a typical area for the development of world-class cone karst peak-forest landforms. The attraction has a pleasant climate, with no severe cold in winter and no extreme heat in summer, and has been listed in the national summer resort city rankings. It is a place for health and leisure tourism in China. The attraction is dominated by cone-shaped peak forests and peak clusters developed in Triassic strata, interspersed with various geological heritage views such as karst caves, dolines, underground rivers, sinkholes, and sedimentary strata. The peak-cluster and peak-forest landscape views are wide in distribution, diverse in type, rich in form, and complete in development, and are extremely rare in China and even worldwide. They are a typical representative of the cone karst landscape views formed in the transitional slope zone from the western Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau to the Guangxi hills, and are known as the "Museum of Chinese Cone Karst." The types of landscape resources in the attraction are mainly natural views such as pastoral scenery and spectacular mountain peaks, supplemented by cultural views such as ethnic minority villages. In terms of natural resources, according to the shapes of the peak forest, it is divided into types such as karst isolated peaks, valley peak forests, karst cone peaks, and blade-shaped stone peaks, forming a majestic and vast karst view. It is a typical representative of cone karst landscape views and has significant value for geological research; in terms of cultural resources, the long history of the Bouyei ethnic group has accumulated rich ethnic culture. Its clothing, language, and living customs all embody a strong ethnic cultural flavor. The "Eight-Tone Sitting and Singing," which enjoys the reputation of "living fossil of sound" and "sound of nature," is a folk storytelling and singing art passed down from generation to generation by the Bouyei ethnic group and has been rated as a "National Intangible Cultural Heritage."

Detian Transnational Waterfall Scenic Spot

Detian Transnational Waterfall Scenic Spot

4.7/5

Detian Transnational Waterfall Scenic Spot is located on the Guichun River along the China-Vietnam border in Guangxi. Here the border river meets a cliff, and the water drops in three tiers with a fall of about 60 m, facing Vietnam's Ban Gioc Waterfall across the cliff. In the rainy season, when the water is abundant, the two waterfalls almost merge into one, with a combined width of more than 200 m, and the roar can be heard across the valley. This is also one of the filming locations for the TV drama The Journey of Flower. The highlights of the visit mostly unfold around this border river: after passing through the Detian Archway, you can take a bamboo raft from the bank toward the foot of the waterfall, look up as the curtain of water crashes down from the cliff top and mist hits your face, and experience up close the unique atmosphere of two countries just a step apart on the border river; on the river, you can often encounter Vietnamese border residents rowing small bamboo rafts to sell coffee, dried fruit, and other small goods, and the bargaining has much of the fun of a cross-border market. After coming ashore, follow the waterfall-viewing boardwalk and the multi-level viewing platforms to look back at the full panorama of the waterfall from different heights. The No. 53 boundary marker, erected in the Qing Dynasty and inscribed with "China Guangxi Boundary," is a popular photo spot. The waterfall view changes noticeably with water volume: during the summer wet season, the water is surging and visually stunning, while in the dry season it is relatively delicate; bamboo raft docks have long queues during peak season, so if you want to view the waterfall up close, it is recommended to plan an early start; there is heavy mist on the bamboo raft, so remember to protect your phone and camera from water.

Huangguoshu Scenic Area

Huangguoshu Scenic Area

4.6/5
40.3k reviews

The Huangguoshu Scenic Area is located in Anshun, Guizhou, centered around the Huangguoshu Waterfall. Surrounded by deep gorges, dense vegetation, and dotted with limestone caves and stone forests, it is a typical karst landscape area. The waterfall's name originates from the locally abundant "Huangguoshu" (Ficus virens). Ming Dynasty traveler Xu Xiake visited and documented this site, contributing to its fame. The scenic area primarily consists of three main sections: the Great Waterfall, Tianxing Bridge, and Doupotang. Most travelers follow the sequence of Doupotang, Tianxing Bridge, and finally the Great Waterfall, saving the most spectacular view for last. The grand waterfall has a drop of nearly 80 m and a width of over 100 m. The Baishui River plunges from the cliff top into Rhinoceros Pool, creating a vast mist. Multiple viewing platforms around it allow visitors to experience its grandeur, wonder, steepness, and beauty from different angles—above, below, front, back, left, and right. A particularly unique experience lies behind the waterfall: a 100 m long Water Curtain Cave runs horizontally through its midsection, featuring cave windows and halls. Reaching through a window, one can touch the cascading water. The cave served as the filming location for the Water Curtain Cave in the 1986 TV series Journey to the West. Due to the heavy humidity inside, bringing a raincoat in advance is recommended. Tianxing Bridge is renowned for its harmonious blend of rocks, water, trees, and caves—where rocks rise from the water, caves hide within rocks, and trees stand beside caves. The stepping stones along the path are engraved with dates, allowing travelers to find their own "birthday stone." The attraction is divided into upper and lower sections. Many travelers turn back after completing the upper section, missing the Silver Chain Waterfall in the lower part—where water cascades like silver chains into a funnel-shaped pool, the highlight of Tianxing Bridge. The Doupotang waterfall is located approx. 1 km upstream from the grand waterfall. With a width of over 100 m at its crest, the water spreads out smoothly like a beaded curtain. During the high-water season, its deep roar earns it the nickname "roaring waterfall." The scene of the four pilgrims leading their horse across the river in the 1986 TV series Journey to the West was filmed here. In summer and fall, the waterfalls are full and powerful, while in winter and spring, the flow becomes gentler, offering different viewing experiences. Nearby, visitors can also enjoy local snacks like sticky rice, love tofu, and Anshun spring rolls.

Dianchi Lake

4.7/5

Dianchi Lake, also known as Kunming Lake, is the sixth-largest freshwater lake in China. Its expansive and magnificent surface has earned it the reputation of "five hundred li of Dianchi Lake" since ancient times. As one of the larger plateau lakes in Yunnan Province, Dianchi Lake is surrounded by numerous waterfront parks and wetlands, making it an unmissable stop when visiting Kunming. Every winter, large flocks of black-headed gulls fly all the way from Siberia to Dianchi Lake to spend the winter. This spectacle has occurred faithfully every year since 1985, and feeding the black-headed gulls along the lakeshore has become a highly popular winter experience in Kunming. Strolling along the sightseeing road on the east bank of Dianchi Lake is a great way to experience the lake up close. On one side is the vast, misty expanse of water, with the Western Hills stretching across the distance; in winter, the sightseeing road is especially lively, as residents and visitors alike stop by the lakeside to interact with the black-headed gulls. For a different perspective, you can take the cableway from the lakeside to Dragon Gate in the Western Hills and look down from above, taking in the entire Dianchi Lake at a glance. In the Caohai area at the northern end, you can also take a boat out on the lake and experience its vastness from the water. In recent years, through sustained governance, the water quality and lakeside ecology of Dianchi Lake have gradually improved, the wetland views along the lake are also continuously being restored, and the sightseeing environment has been significantly enhanced compared to the past.

The tour guide was fantastic, the price was incredibly reasonable, and the scenery was among the best in China. The Fengxi Café was also very unique. Riding an electric scooter through the mountain peaks was breathtaking.

Transportation is inconvenient; you can only get back by car. The scenery along the way is nice, and you can take a boat with the elderly, but to be honest, the view of the lake from the road you drive in is more beautiful and spectacular than the view from the lake itself.

The cave is huge; the Via Ferrata looks easy, but climbing it is actually quite challenging. The service was reliable. Our group of 22 couldn't reach the entrance by bus, so they sent six small vehicles to wait for us, very punctually. Very good.

During summer vacation, I went there with my friends and their kids. We arrived early, so we found a terrace for dinner with a view of the water. There was a performance on the water in the evening. The natural scenery of mountains and water combined with the man-made architecture created a great atmosphere 👍 The only downside was that eating outdoors meant that mosquitoes were unavoidable at night, especially in a place like Guizhou with a relatively good ecological environment.

The water quality at the dam is absolutely stunning, crystal clear and almost like a small island. The surface is calm and stable, making it easy for beginners to stand and play without worrying about capsizing. It's fully equipped with showers, a BBQ area, and excellent water play facilities. Paddleboarding under the waterfall is a must-do for Instagram-worthy photos. The instructors are patient and provide full supervision, ensuring a safe and fun experience for families. A must-visit for water activities in Xingyi!

The waterfall wall is the primary attraction. The central "Tianxing Gallery" section features over 20 waterfalls within a span of just 1.7 kilometers. The "Ten Thousand Horses Galloping" waterfall is the highlight of the area; during the rainy season, you can hear its roar and feel its spray before it even comes into view. Be sure to bring a raincoat, as the "Yellow Dragon Waterfall" section will leave you completely soaked.

Ticketing was convenient; entry was quick and easy, simply by scanning your ID card. The park's layout was clear, and although it was mid-November, the waterfall's flow was still good. The scenery remained spectacular, and with fewer visitors, there were plenty of good spots to admire the falls and take photos from the various viewing platforms.

Five-star review! A visit to Huaguo Mountain isn't complete without checking out the Water Curtain Cave Waterfall! The roar of the water is immediately apparent as you approach. The water cascades down the cliff, transforming into a pristine white curtain, perfectly recreating the Water Curtain Cave from *Journey to the West*. Lush forests surround the waterfall, and the mist is refreshing and invigorating. You can walk to the entrance of the Water Curtain Cave to experience the spray up close, feeling as if you've stepped into the Monkey King's celestial abode. The scenic trails are well-maintained with clear signage, allowing you to admire the mountain streams, unique rock formations, and lush trees as you stroll. The blend of natural beauty and *Journey to the West* culture is delightful for both adults and children. Seeing the cascading waterfall with your own eyes fulfills a childhood dream of watching *Journey to the West*, making it well worth a special trip!

Standing on the lakeshore, one can see a breathtaking panorama of clear water, blue sky, and soaring birds, all blending seamlessly into a harmonious scene that soothes and calms the soul. Every autumn and winter, the arrival of red-billed gulls from across the mountains and seas creates a unique and romantic spectacle at Dianchi Lake. There's no need to chase after the scenery; simply stroll along the lakeside, watch the gulls dance, and listen to the interplay of wind and their calls.

The owner is very nice, and the coach is very dedicated, staying with the child throughout the entire session. They are very patient with the child and even let the child play for a long time! I will definitely choose this place again next time!
