Why is this waterfall called Huangguoshu waterfall instead of otherwaterfalls? According to folklore, there is a tall Huangjue tree beside thewaterfall. According to the local accent, Jue and Guo have the samepronunciation, so people are used to calling it Huangguoshu. This is a way ofsaying. There is another saying.

It has a series of magnificent sceneries on the ground,underground, water and water. One of the most amazing places is the cliffcorridor cave hidden half of the waterfall. Because of the climbing of vinesoutside the cave and the Pearl curtain hanging on the water, it is calledshuilian cave. This is a unique sight that no other waterfall in the worldhas.
Ladies and gentlemen, the water curtain cave is 134 meters long. Itconsists of six windows, three Gudong springs and six passageways. This is thescene of Shuiliandong in the large-scale TV series journey to the West adaptedfrom Chinese mythology.
This is the first cave window, which is the lowest, only 40 meters awayfrom the water surface of Rhinoceros Pool, but the cave window is the widest,more than 10 meters wide, located in the middle of the first and secondwaterfalls. When the water is heavy, the two waterfalls connect to form acurtain to seal all the cave windows; when the water is small, it opens againand again, ranging from a few meters to more than 10 meters. Min likes a curtainthat can be opened and closed at will.
This is the second window. It's only about 4 meters away from the firstwindow. This is a quiet world, known as crystal palace.

It is often covered by splashes and submerged by fog. As long as there issunshine, there are colorful rainbows hanging on the splashing beads of thewaterfall, moving with people and unpredictable.
Why is Huangguoshu waterfall like this? This is because Huangguoshuwaterfall is located in karst area, which is caused by the erosion of waterflow. When the traceable erosion point reaches the upstream, the river waterscours, dissolves, erodes and abrades along the karst fissure, and the pipelineexpands gradually, forming the cave and underground river; after the localsurface river is injected into the cave, the proportion of water volumeincreases gradually, forming a unique attack in the karst area, and at the placewhere the open flow is injected into the cave, a cave waterfall is formed. Withthe increasing erosion and strategic collapse, the underground river cavesbecome larger and larger, so a series of vertical shafts and skylights aredeveloped along the dry valley of the surface. They are expanding, merging andcollapsing, resulting in the magnificent Huangguoshu waterfall and the deep andsteep canyon downstream of the waterfall.
