Huangguoshu Waterfall is really a masterpiece of nature!

As soon as I entered Huangguoshu Scenic Area, I heard a "rushing" sound coming from a distance, just like a breeze blowing through the treetops, getting louder and louder, and finally coming like a tidal wave, which drowned out the noisy Ma Si, leaving only a noisy underwater sound between heaven and earth.

Through the cracks in the trees, you can see a waterfall hanging on the rock wall, which is folded in three folds, as if a wide Bai Lian was pouring down from the loom. That "rushing" underwater sound has become a grand ensemble of thousands of looms.

The water spray aroused by the waterfall soared like rain and fog, floated with the wind, reaching hundreds of meters, and landed in Huangguoshu town on the right side of the waterfall, forming the famous wonder of "Silver Rain and Golden Street".

Huangguoshu Waterfall falls in a valley surrounded by mountains. We walked down the stone steps from the west until we reached the bottom. Sitting on a rock by the water, it is very close to the waterfall, separated by a small green pool, as if you could lift your hand and wash your face. The water droplets splashed by the waterfall when it plunged into the bottom of the valley directly splashed on our faces, which was cool and comfortable.

Huangguoshu Waterfall is not as long as Lushan Waterfall, but it is much wider than it, so it looks extraordinary and magnificent. The waterfall pours down from the rock wall, like thunder roaring, and the mountain returns to the valley. Sitting below, it seems to be in a round orchestra pit. Music is playing around, and people are like floating in a sound wave, and every cell is full of vitality.

We sat for a long time, letting the cool flying beads jump on the hot face and wet the thin clothes. Listening to the sound of waterfalls, I only feel my chest expanding, just like an open valley, letting waterfalls flow down and bringing infinite vitality to nature.

Leave the pool and follow the stone path to a platform beside the stream. Among the trees, there is a statue of Xu Xiake. He looked at the waterfall from a distance, as if listening attentively to the sound of the waterfall in the distance. He was completely intoxicated. At this moment, we are completely intoxicated.

Huangguoshu Waterfall is located in Baishui reach of Dabang River Basin. When the river reaches Huangguoshu from north to south, a large longitudinal slope crack point appears on the riverbed to form Huangguoshu Waterfall. After passing through the Waterfall, the water flows around a semi-circular arc to the west, with a chord length of 5 meters, protruding to the west for 3 meters, reaching the screw beach head below the water scouring, and recovering the flow direction from north to south.

The waterfall is 11m wide and 77.8m high. The waterfall flies into the rhinoceros pond, and the water flows through Sandaotan, Horseshoe Beach, Pig Longtan, Oil Fish Well, Pot Bottom Pan, Bay Pond and Maoshui Pond in turn.

Xu Xiake described Huangguoshu Waterfall: "If you look south through the dragon gap, you will find that the left stream of the road is suspended and pounded, and the stones on the stream are covered like lotus leaves, and three doors are gouged out in the middle. The water overflows from the top of the leaves, like ten thousand pieces, and the door is covered horizontally. Those who go straight down cannot count, and the beads are pounded and the jade is broken, and the droplets are surging back." The so-called' bead curtain hooks don't roll, flying practice hangs the remote peak', which is not enough to be strong. "

among the waterfalls he saw, "those who are several times as tall have it, but those who have never been so wide and big". Since then, Huangguoshu Waterfall has gradually been regarded as the first waterfall in China.

The flow rate of the waterfall river is only a few per hour, and it reaches more than 1, at the maximum. When the water is heavy, the waterfall splashes beads on Huangguoshu Street, which is more than 1 meters high, and thunderous noises can be heard two or three miles away. When the water is small, the river is still divided into four branches, spreading on the whole rock wall without losing its "wide and big" momentum.

behind the waterfall, there is a 134-meter-long water curtain cave crossing the waterfall, which consists of 6 cave windows, 5 cave halls, 3 cave springs and 6 passages. It's breathtaking to see the Great Waterfalls from inside water curtain cave. Water curtain cave under such a spectacular waterfall is also rare in waterfalls all over the world.

In front of the waterfall is a deep box-shaped karst canyon, with cliffs on the left and dense ancient trees; On the right are travertine slope, stalagmite mountain, fragrant grass and flowers, covered with clouds; Among them are rhinoceros pool and horseshoe pool, which are connected with each other. The rhinoceros pond is 17 meters deep, often covered with splashing beads, and the fog beads are flying; In the morning and afternoon, the sun refracts and the rainbow rises, and the predecessors have the reputation of "snow reflecting Sichuan Xia".

There is a waterfall pavilion opposite the waterfall, which is very quaint. There is a famous calligrapher Yan Yinliang in the Qing Dynasty who wrote: "White water is like cotton, and flowers are scattered without a bow; The rosy clouds are like brocade, so why should we weave the sky? " There are dense trees under the pavilion, and there is a winding road leading to the river. A curved bridge across the river leads to "water curtain cave".

Huangguoshu Waterfall Hotel is built among the trees on the shore not far from the downstream of the Waterfall, and the building of the hotel adopts the architectural style of Buyi stone. There is a marble statue of Xu Xiake on the side of the waterfall.
