Dragon Cave and Huangguoshu Waterfall @ Guiyang Review

Guiyang is the Capital of Guangzhou of Southwest China.


Although is a Capital, is a quite a laid back city if you were to compare to city like Beijing and Shanghai.


First Visit I went to visit Dragon Cave where you can have a boat ride on the rive stream to see the lime stone cave and you can visit the cave waterfall too ! 


Buying tickets to visit Lime Stone Cave ! 

Here is some Map and Information regarding about the Dragon Cave : 

This is where you are going to hop on for a short boat ride to visit the cave: 

Weeeee !! On the boat now to see Lime Stone Cave :D 

Entrance of the Lime Stone Cave: 

Note: Is pitch dark inside with only a few spot light shining inside the cave, my camera phone cant capture it clearly.... This is the only best I could take >< 

This one of the Lime Stone Cave Section: 

Here is where we are going through this tiny pass to enter to a larger area of the Lime Stone Cave : 

Overall the Lime Stone Cave is worth to visit if you really enjoying seeing lime stone patterns and design form inside a cave. The only disappointment I have found is that the boat ride is really too short, perhaps the cave is just that small to me >< 

Now, I will be visiting "Long men flying waterfall" :D *Excited*

Is so amazing to see that there is a natural formation of waterfall in the Cave !! 

Indescribable God creation!! 

Very beautiful indeed :D 

Beautiful Stream taken on the stream in front of the Long men Flying Waterfall : 

After visiting Dragon Cave, I head to visit Huangguoshu Waterfall. 


When you are in Guiyang, you have to I repeat *HAVE TO* to visit Huangguoshu Waterfall aka "黄果树瀑布" direct translation will be "Yellow Fruit Tree Waterfalls"!

This is the ticket costing CNY180 :

Huangguoshu is 77.8 meter high, 101 meters high, is China largest waterfall and it is also known as one of the world great waterfall. 

This is taken from the entrance : 

As you walk further in, prepare your camera setting because you are getting nearer and nearer to it ;)

Oh ya.. if you are going to visit this waterfall during the raining season, you got to bring your own waterproof jacket or you can get one outside the entrance costing CNY 2.

Try to slash down the price to the seller, if you are buying more than 5 or 10, make sure you ask her to lower down the price :P 

This why you need a waterproof jacket especially during rainy season because there is a large amount of water coming from the waterfall causing small droplets of splashing water... so if you are walking in front of the waterfall you probably get really soaking wet >< 

Mind you is not raining although is look like when you are there :P

Getting really cold and wet >< 

Nearer and side shot of the waterfall : 

Spotted this structure ! Good protection from falling rocks ! 

This is the entrance to the hole behind the waterfall ! *excited* :D 

Wear better shoes if you are visiting here, very slippery ><

Pathway inside the hole : 

Throughout the pathway you can see small opening to have a closer look on the waterfall! 

Totally an Amazing Experience :D

After walking out the hole, I am now on downstream from the waterfall. 

Last picture taken with this magnificent beauty waterfall :D

After crossing over this bridge, I am all so exhausted, ready to go back and have a good rest >< 

Stay tune for more Reviews on Guiyang, Chonqing and Zhanjiajie !! 

My First Experience of 2 hours Standstill Traffic on a Highway in China !! *nightmare*

While I was travelling on a 6 hours bus to Chonqing, a major city in southwest of China, I was stuck in a standstill traffic.  This is my first encounter on a standstill traffic, I was stuck about two hours on the road.

All vehicles had switch off its engine. This signalling that it will be a long hours to wait.

During raining season, road accident along the highway had become common due to slippery road. The highway heading from Guiyang to Chonqing only have two lane and one smaller lane for emergency. If one truck overturned it could be a nightmare for all of us !

One hour have passed and no cars seems to be moving...

From Far away, you could see some guys finding their comfortable spot to *Pee* 放水 erhmm....

After awhile... from far you could see a few villagers piggy back a basket and holding two flasks as they walk along the traffic. They were selling titbits and instant noodles !

As a foreigner, I was impress at their fast action on its business opportunity.
If it were happened in Malaysia, I don't think people would ever thought of that.. or perhaps is because rural area in China were very much poorer.

Those Villagers are willing to piggy back heavy basket of goods to sell.
As for me being stuck at this standstill traffic, I am very much bless to have them as I have no idea how long my tummy could last if the traffic is not going to move.

One of my travel mates bought a titbits from them, a packet of nuts that cost 4yuan.
My travel mate offer to give her 5yuan instead but she refuse to accept it and insisted to return her back 1yuan.

This is my first time witness a honest seller in China, (I have been cheated by them a few times) they don't even hike up the price which I think most people would do. As time goes by demand on food increase, they could easily hike up the price because soon desperate people will definitely buy from them.

 Note that we stuck at the middle of no where... !! The distant from the toilet is far away~~

I could see more and more guys finding their spot to pee >.<

One of the old aunties that I travel with, is in need to pee, she couldnt climb over the embankment due to leg problem. One of the uncle suggested her to use ....... *faint*

DIAPERS !!! 

So our city folk ! Please be well prepared for the worst case scenarios in China !!
Diapers can be very useful in this time of emergency period !

So Bring on the Diapers !!!!


After two hours.... Traffic started to move and I witness an overturn truck.....

Sincerely,
