Tiger mouth waterfall

Laohuzui waterfall is located in Laohuzui, Motuo. The name of "Laohuzui" is this plank road cut in the rock half of the cliff. The situation is very dangerous. The whole Canyon is a typical deep V-shaped canyon with a large drop. Generally speaking, this section of groove shaped like a tiger mouth and several nearby landslides are collectively referred to as the "tiger mouth" area.

The waterfall is like the Milky Way hanging upside down, like tens of thousands of broken pearls, falling down abruptly along the cliffs, falling into the bottomless abyss, sending out earth shaking roars.

The highway passed through the cliff. The gap was very like an open tiger mouth, which was called Tiger mouth by local people.
