Located in Xingyi City, Guizhou, the Maling River Gorge is deep and rapid, with hanging walls like weaving, silver waterfalls flying down, and the gorge is characterized by fissure valleys, group waterfalls flying horizontally, and calcium carbonate wall hangings. The gorge is 74.8 kilometers long, 50 to 150 meters wide, 120 to 280 meters deep, and the bottom of the gorge is 200 meters below the ground. It was rated as the second most beautiful karst gorge by 'China National Geographic'. The Maling River Grand Waterfall, known as the 'most beautiful wound on earth', is a typical karst topography. The Maling River rushes through the cracks in the mountain walls, and the water on both sides pours down to form several waterfalls. The mist is filled with mist, like a fairyland. People can also walk under the waterfall to experience a real water curtain cave. Transportation It takes 4 hours to drive from Guiyang. You can choose to take a bus directly to the scenic area, or take a taxi to the scenic area after arriving at Xingyi Railway Station. Ticket The ticket is 70 yuan, and the escalator is 40 yuan one way. Recommended route: Xiaoqingshan Entrance and Exit - Visit the Elevator - Rain Beating Banana - Viewing Platform - Sky Castle - Sea Lion Hall - Wanma Pentium Waterfall Viewing Platform You can choose to climb the mountain for about half an hour and exit from the Dachaiwo exit, or you can return to the Xiaoqingshan entrance and exit by the same way by taking the elevator (one way: 40 yuan), the latter is easier, the whole journey is 2-3 hours.

Malinghe is a small city located in and around the Guizhou border with Yunnan. While not the easiest spot in Guizhou to get to, it’s Yangshuo/Guilin-like mountainous landscape but without the mountains of people makes it a relaxing spot to spend the weekend. With the Malinghe waterfall canyon you also get one of the coolest canyons in China. Walk down to the bottom and you’ll find yourself along a refurbished path with waterfalls cascading down on both sides of the canyon. Just be sure to check the weather beforehand. We went during the dry season and while you could tell it would be impressive during the rainy season, it wasn’t quite as impressive at that moment. #waterfall#naturalwonders#hiking

The village is small but very primitive, and there are no other visitors except us. The villagers are very friendly, just to not disturb their lives, I basically did not shoot people. The beautiful roof is my dish. The rafting of the Maling River is very commendable in China. The first is the length. The whole journey is 22 kilometers. The second is the scenery on both sides. Even if you dont see the waterfall, it looks very much like the Ayong River in Bali. A shoal, 22 small slopes, playing it is quite exciting, really screaming all the way, laughing all the way. The valley is particularly quiet, and there are a few bird humming sounds from time to time, flying a few butterflies, so that we are always surprised to live in the city.

📅 Wanfenglin Hiking Diary 📍Location: Xingyi, Guizhou · Wanfenglin (China's Most Beautiful Karst Peak Forest, the Mysterious Code of Bagua Terraces) ✨ Soul-striking! When thousands of peaks emerged faintly in the sea of clouds, I forgot to breathe. At 6 a.m., I dashed up to General Bridge Viewing Platform with dew underfoot. In the mist, over 20,000 conical peaks suddenly unveiled themselves, like bamboo shoots breaking through the soil, with clouds flowing between the peaks. I frantically reached for my phone to capture a time-lapse but slipped on the mossy stone path, and my phone slid into the Bagua Terraces. Yet, I laughed—because, for once, I wasn’t enslaved by notifications. 🏞️ Immersive Karst Carnival | Every Isolated Peak Tells a Geological Epic 1. Bagua Terraces (The Rings of the Earth) ✅ Must-Do: - Arrive before 6:30! Capture "Morning Mist over Bagua Terraces + Peak Reflections," with a 0.5x wide-angle for maximum depth. - Drone shots of the "funnel-shaped farmland"—raw images that look like alien landscapes. 🚗 Transport: High-speed train from Guiyang to Xingyi Station (¥200, 2 hours) → Scenic shuttle (¥50/person). 2.

ISO 100 + wide aperture for bokeh). - Maling River Gorge Waterfalls, using your phone’s pro mode: ISO 100, shutter speed 0.5s. 💰 3-Day Budget: Transport ¥400 + Lodging ¥1,660 + Food ¥400 = ¥2,460 ✨ Ramblings Wanfenglin is truly "God’s overturned bonsai pot"! Losing my phone was a bummer, but the sour fish soup and starry skies healed everything.

Folks, fresh back from Xingyi, I've got to share why July-August might not be ideal. Don't get me wrong—it's not about the destination being uninteresting (quite the opposite!), but these two months come with special considerations that could affect your trip if you're not prepared. Weather: Deceptively cool with hidden challenges Dubbed "Little Spring City" with an average annual temperature of 16°C, Xingyi sounds like a perfect summer escape, right? But July-August is rainy season 🌧️, making travel genuinely inconvenient. At Maling River Canyon, rain started right as I arrived—slippery boardwalks turned a leisurely stroll into a cautious "adventure." While the misty waterfalls created a unique atmosphere, the combination of rain and spray made photography nearly impossible. A real shame! That said, post-rain air is incredibly fresh, packed with negative oxygen ions—like breathing from an "air can." A small silver lining. Attractions: Limited activities and crowds Wanfeng Lake is a must-visit, but many water activities (like jet skis or scenic boat rides) are often suspended in July-August due to water level changes and safety concerns. Some attractions may even close temporarily—imagine the disappointment after a long trip! Wanfenglin and Maling River Canyon remain open but get crowded. At Wanfenglin, the sightseeing bus lines felt endless, and photo spots were packed. The canyon, usually serene, buzzed with noise, losing some of its natural tranquility. Food: Delicious but harder to enjoy Xingyi’s cuisine is outstanding—lamb noodles, chicken dumplings, gangzi noodles—each bite is heavenly. But during rains, many street food stalls operate unpredictably. I hunted for hours to find my coveted heziba (fried rice cakes), stomach growling the whole time. Still, the flavors make the effort worthwhile! Tips for your trip: 1. **Gear up**: Always carry rain gear (umbrella, poncho) and wear anti-slip shoes (sneakers ideal). 2. **Check updates**: Monitor attraction websites/social media for closures. If Wanfeng Lake is off-limits, spend more time cycling through Wanfenglin’s countryside. 3. **Avoid peaks**: Skip weekends/holidays to minimize crowds and queues. 4. **Ask locals**: Hotel staff or residents can point you to indoor or reliable food stalls. Despite these quirks, Xingyi’s karst landscapes, stunning scenery, and mouthwatering food remain unforgettable. With smart planning, your trip can still be amazing! 💕

Recently, many people have said that traveling in Guizhou can be disappointing, but as someone who just returned from Guizhou with my child, I have to share my honest experience: a family trip to Guizhou is definitely worth it! The scenery is beautiful, there are many activities, and kids can have fun while learning. Planning to go again this summer～✈️ 【Experience Report】 🌊 Huangguoshu Waterfall: Truly worthy of being called China’s number one waterfall. Seeing the waterfall cascade down from a great height in person was so stunning! We took the sightseeing bus with the kids for a close-up view and also enjoyed the waterfall afternoon tea, sipping tea while watching the waterfall. The kids were excited the whole time. Highly recommend kids wear waterproof shoes~ ⛰ Cave Exploration at the Earth’s Core: Following a professional team with flashlights, crossing dark rivers, the kids learned to identify fossils with the coach and even touched rock walls that are over a hundred million years old. They kept saying “So cool!” the entire time! 🏜 Maling River Canyon: Known as “the most beautiful scar on Earth,” this canyon waterfall cluster is shrouded in mist, with thousands of waterfalls forming streams, like a fairyland~ We chose to hike here, and the waterfall views along the way were spectacular. Although a bit tiring, the kids walked the whole way by themselves! Bring rain gear because no matter the weather, there are many waterfalls in the canyon and it’s easy to get wet~ 🛵 Wanfenglin: At Wanfenglin, you can bike or take a small train. I recommend biking—rent a family bike and leisurely enjoy the peak forest. We caught fish in the rice fields with the kids and experienced rural fun. The kids had so much fun they didn’t want to leave~ 🏰 Jilong Fort & Wanfeng Lake Cruise: Jilong Fort is a romantic spot for wives, located in the middle of the lake, like a dreamy castle—great for photos! We took the kids on a boat cruise on Wanfeng Lake, enjoying the lake breeze, which was very soothing~ 📅【Our Itinerary】 Day 1: Arrive in Guiyang—Hotel Day 2: Guiyang—Huangguoshu Waterfall—Waterfall Afternoon Tea Day 3: Huangguoshu—Cave Exploration at the Earth’s Core—Stay in Mushroom House Day 4: Maling River Canyon—Wanfenglin Day 5: Jilong Fort—Wanfeng Lake Cruise—Return 💡【Tips from Experienced Travelers】 🔸 Weather: Guizhou’s weather changes a lot, with temperature differences between day and night. Bring a light jacket for the kids to add or remove layers as needed, and don’t forget sun protection. 🔸 Transportation: Guizhou has many mountain roads, so self-driving is not recommended! We joined a family tour with a driver who was very steady on mountain roads, making it easy to relax and take care of the kids. 🔸 Food: Must-try dishes include sour soup fish and silk rolls. Many Guizhou dishes contain houttuynia; if you don’t like it, tell the restaurant in advance when ordering. 🔸 Gear: Non-slip shoes, mosquito repellent, and waterproof phone cases are essential. Carrying a small backpack is more convenient for cave exploration. - 👉【Charter Tours】 【Customized Tours】 【Private Groups】 are all available~ To get the same itinerary, tap the bottom left of the screen 【Chat with Them】 to get a plan! -

#springitinerary Carved over millennia in Guizhou’s southwest, Malinghe Canyon drops 120 meters deep, with moss-covered cliffs and dozens of cascades plunging into emerald pools. This is no ordinary gorge—it’s a living watercolor where you can: - Walk Behind Waterfalls: Feel the spray at Zhusun Waterfall’s hidden cave path. - Cross Heart-Pounding Bridges: The "Rainbow Rope Bridge" sways over roaring rapids. - Raft Through Rapids: Summer turns the canyon into a Grade III whitewater playground. Why It Stands Out: ✔ UNESCO Geopark Status: Rare "calcified waterfall" formations. ✔ Year-Round Drama: Spring’s thunderous flows vs. winter’s delicate ice curtains. ✔ Ethnic Encounters: Nearby Buyi villages sell handmade paper from cliffside plants.
