Huangguoshu Waterfall is the centre of the Huangguoshu scenic area. Located on the Baishui River, it is the largest of its kind in China and one of the most magnificent waterfalls in the world. It is 81 metres wide, with a drop of 74 metres. Like the Milky Way descending from heaven, the Huangguoshu Waterfall rushes into the Xiniu pond. Its roaring sound can be heard several kilometres away. The cave behind the Waterfall is 134 metres long. Still intact inside the cave is an age-old carving of four Chinese characters, meaning “snow reflecting cloud”. Watching sunset from inside the cave offers a mirage-like view.

黄果树瀑布风景区 – 位于贵州省镇宁、关岭两县境内北盘江支流、打帮河上游的白水河和坝陵河上。景区以黄果树瀑布为中心,以瀑布、溶洞、地下湖为主体,素有“天下奇景”之称。

这一带是典型的岩溶地区,长期的河道变迁、袭夺、暗河塌陷、河流下切,致使河床级级跌落,形成了多种多样的瀑布。景区共有地表瀑布18个、地下瀑布14个,可以说是一巨大的瀑布群。在这些瀑布中,黄果树瀑布是白水河上九级瀑布中的最大一级,是我国第一大瀑布,也是亚洲最大的瀑布。除黄果树瀑布外,其四周还分布串串珍珠似的瀑布。世界上著名的瀑布不可胜数,但象黄果树如此集中、姿态各异的瀑布群,则为我国所独有。

黄果树瀑布落差74米,宽81米,河水从断崖顶端凌空飞流而下,倾入崖下的犀牛潭中,势如翻江倒海。水石相激,发出震天巨响,腾起一片烟雾,迷蒙细雾在阳光照射下,又化作一道道彩虹,幻景绰绰,奇妙无穷。瀑布对岸高崖上的观瀑亭上有对联曰:“白水如棉不用弓弹花自散,虹霞似锦何须梭织天生成”,此乃是黄果树瀑布的生动写照。但黄果树瀑布的形态因季节而有变化,冬天水小时,它妩媚秀丽,轻轻下泻;到了夏秋,水量大增,那撼天动地的磅礴气势,简直令人惊心动魄。有时瀑布激起的雪沫烟雾,高达数百米,漫天浮游,竟使其周围经常处于纷飞的细雨之中。

瀑布后的水帘洞相当绝妙,134米长的洞内有6个洞窗,5个洞厅,3个洞泉和1个洞内瀑布。游人穿行于洞中,可在洞窗内观看洞外飞流直下的瀑布;每当日薄西山,凭窗眺望,犀牛潭里彩虹缭绕,云蒸霞蔚,苍山顶上绯红一片,迷离变幻,这便是著名的“水帘洞内观日落”。
