    Upon arriving at Huangguoshu, I realized it was a group of waterfalls. Having already walked past two, I was exhausted from running up and down, and by the time I reached the most famous main waterfall, I was completely out of breath. Before even seeing the waterfall, I heard its thunderous roar and saw the mist rising from it. Rounding a bend, wow! Such a magnificent waterfall! Compared to any other waterfall I'd seen before, its sheer grandeur truly lived up to my expectations of what China's premier waterfall should be!

    If you don't want to be crammed into major tourist attractions during the summer peak season, this is a great option. Traveling with kids and elders, and not wanting to be like a special forces team, we chose to visit the Dragon Palace, which was the kids' favorite part. It was truly an unprecedented experience! The only downside was that we didn't get to sit in it enough! In the sweltering summer heat outside, the Dragon Palace felt like it had air conditioning – a perfect summer retreat!

    The Gui'an Cherry Blossom Garden lives up to its reputation as "the most beautiful cherry blossom garden on the blue planet." 700,000 cherry trees are in full bloom across 24,000 mu (approximately 1,000 acres) of land. The vibrant sea of pink and white blossoms, set against the backdrop of emerald green tea fields and sparkling lakes, creates a breathtaking spring scene. Strolling through it feels like stepping into a dreamlike fairytale.

    The scenic spot is not very famous, but there are many people going there. Those who are physically fit can climb to the top of the mountain to see the beautiful scenery, but the elderly probably don't have the physical strength to climb up, so they usually take a boat directly after the visit. The beautiful scenery is at the top of the mountain. If your physical strength allows, go and see it. In fact, it took more than 3 hours for the whole journey. Because I went early. I waited for an hour and a half to wait for the Miao village performance at 12:30, and it took a total of 5 hours.

    It's a simple village with residents living there. To reach the bridges and waterways, you have to walk quite a distance along the mountain path. Along the way, there are various flowers and plants, and according to image search, most of them are Chinese medicinal herbs. The scenery is very pristine and relaxing.

    The Water Curtain Cave is located at a height of 40 to 47 meters above the Huangguoshu Waterfall. It is 134 meters long and consists of 6 cave windows, 5 cave halls, 3 cave springs and 6 passages. This is the real scene where the 1986 version of "Journey to the West" filmed the scene of Sun Wukong flying into the Water Curtain Cave. The stalactites in the cave are of different shapes. You can also look out through the waterfall curtain from different positions and enjoy the double-track dynamic rainbow on the Rhinoceros Pond, which is very wonderful. Photography suggestions At the viewing platform outside the Water Curtain Cave, you can take a panoramic view of the waterfall. With the waterfall as the background, the characters stand sideways or with their backs to the body, which can capture the artistic conception. Enter the Water Curtain Cave, stand in front of the cave window, let the sunlight pass through the water curtain to form a halo, and take close-ups of the characters. On the iron chain bridge, with the waterfall and green mountains as the background, take pictures of the characters walking across the bridge to add dynamics.

Walking around and enjoying the scenery is incredibly pleasant. The tour guide provided detailed explanations, making the trip relaxing and comfortable. Highly recommended for every tourist!

    A good place to understand Tunbu culture, a village in the Ming Dynasty, which was sealed off and defended. Especially those around Nanjing, Jiangsu, should go there, maybe you can find people of the same tribe.
