Must-visit attractions in Guizhou | Huangguoshu Waterfall | Here's the guide, take it

When traveling to Guizhou, how can you not visit Huangguoshu Waterfall? Generally speaking, it's suitable to spend 2 days to slowly explore the big waterfall, but if you're pressed for time like me and only have one day to visit Huangguoshu Waterfall, you can refer to this guide: ◆Address: Guizhou Province, Zhenning Buyi and Miao Autonomous County, Huangguoshu Town, Guihuang Highway (Huangguoshu Scenic Area) ◆Business hours: 07:00-18:00 ◆Transportation: 🚇High-speed train + 🚗Taxi about 110 yuan about 70 minutes From Guiyang, take the 7:03 train to Anshun West, the fare is 46.5 yuan and the journey is about 29 minutes. After getting off the station, take a taxi to the entrance of the scenic area for about 59-80 yuan and about 40 minutes. You should arrive at the big waterfall at about 9:00 to avoid the crowd. ◆Scenic area direct bus 60 yuan about 2.5-3 hours Guiyang North Station - Huangguoshu Waterfall: The bus departs at 8:10, and the journey is 2 hours and 10 minutes (there will be traffic jams during the morning rush hour) Guiyang Old Passenger Station - Huangguoshu Waterfall: The bus departs at 7:50, and the journey is 2 hours and 30 minutes (there will be traffic jams during the morning rush hour) ◆Tickets You can buy in advance on all major platforms, both regular tickets and VIP tickets are available. For those who are lazy, physically weak, or with elderly and children, it is strongly recommended to buy P VIP tickets It's really worth it: There is an exclusive bus in the scenic area, no need to queue, and there is an exclusive shortcut route that doesn't require much walking. You only need to walk more than 10,000 steps in a day) Regular tickets require about 30,000 steps ◆Recommended tour order: Big Waterfall - Tianxing Bridge (only play the second half) - Doupo Pond. ◆Main attractions 1️⃣Big Waterfall: The escalator ticket is 50, which saves time and effort! The viewing platform will get slightly wet, but don't worry, the continuous mist, in my opinion, doesn't require an umbrella, raincoat, or slippers, unless you go through the water curtain cave. During the peak season in summer, if you're in a hurry, it's recommended to give up the water curtain cave, because the queue takes at least 1.5 hours. 2️⃣Tianxing Bridge: The biggest and most tiring, the whole tour takes 3 hours, the scenery in the first half is ordinary, give up! Just walk the second half: Shusheng Step - Gaolaozhuang - Bridge on Bridge - Tianxing Cave - Water Stone Forest - Silver Chain Waterfall - Take the cable car to the exit ◆If the cable car is queued, it's recommended to give up, it only takes more than 10 minutes to walk to the exit, but queuing takes more than half an hour. ◆The second half has many narrow paths that only one person can pass, like the Diamond Cave, where there are so many people that it's suffocating, the movement is very slow and there's no way back, plus the weather is unbearably hot, it's recommended to carry a fan with you. ◆Doupo Pond, as a filming location for Journey to the West, is also a classic memory from childhood, there is only one waterfall, the drop is not big, but it's wide enough, you can play with one of the other two. By the way! The cucumbers and hawthorn popsicles in Huangguoshu are super delicious, you must try them!!!
