Xingyi's Most Magical Waterfall Photo Guide

Fairyland in Xingyi! Spend a day as a wild forest spirit in the Malin River Canyon Waterfall Cluster 🇨🇳 I declare this the most worth revisiting waterfall in Guizhou! Every shot looks like a scene from a battle of immortals 💦 📍 Location: National Highway 324, Xingyi City, Qianxinan ⏰ Opening Hours: March to October 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM (last ticket at 5:30 PM) November to February 8:30 AM - 5:30 PM (last ticket at 5:00 PM) 🌊 Hiking Route 1️⃣ Tiānshēngqiáo Viewing Platform The canyon’s prime spot! The best viewpoint for the rushing waterfall cluster 📸 Tips: Have the photographer stand on the side walkway and use a telephoto lens to capture silhouette portraits with the waterfall 2️⃣ Rain-sprinkled Banana Corridor At 30°C summer, it’s only 23°C here! The mist naturally adds a soft light filter 👗 Outfit Tip: Wear a flowing slip dress and capture the skirt swirling with the waterfall in the frame 3️⃣ Pearl Waterfall Like a fairy spilling a jewelry box! Sunlight refracts to create tiny seven-color rainbows 💦 Hidden Tip: After 3 PM, the mist is minimal, allowing you to capture the clearest water curtain effect 🍜 Canyon Delicacies Bouyei Five-Color Rice: Glutinous rice balls dyed with natural plants Waterfall Ice Jelly: Served with local wild rosehip jam ⚠️ Pitfall Prevention Guide • Don’t come during the dry season from March to May! July to August is the waterfall’s peak season • Wear non-slip shoes! Mossy stone paths are very slippery • Bring a waterproof phone pouch! The mist is denser than Evian spray 📸 Top Photo Spots • Corner of the second Tiānshēngqiáo viewing platform (vertical shots are stunning) • Stone steps below Pearl Waterfall (sitting and shooting upwards makes legs look super long)
