Huangguoshu Waterfall

The Huangguoshu Waterfall was first recorded in the Travel Notes of Xu Xiake. Xu Xiake was a great geographer and traveler of the Ming Dynasty. He traveled from Guangxi to Guizhou and arrived at Huangguoshu. His travel notes include a fascinating account of the Huangguoshu Waterfall. "The splashing droplets are just like crushed pearls and broken jade, producing a haze of mist in the air, which is rather overwhelming."

The waterfall area was developed in 1979 and became officially open to the public in 1980. It was listed by the State Council as one of the first national parks in 1982. The Huangguoshu Waterfall is 77.8 meters high and 101 meters wide. It is the only waterfall in the world that can be viewed from above, below, front, back, left and right. It is also the only waterfall in the world that has a cave (134 meters long) at half its height so it can be viewed and even touched inside the cave. In a word, the waterfall is a wonder that can be appreciated from all angles.
