Doupotang waterfall

Doupotang waterfall

Doupotang waterfall is located 1km upstream of Huangguoshu waterfall in Guizhou Province. The top of the waterfall is 105m wide and 21m high. It is the widest waterfall in Huangguoshu waterfall group. On the top of doupotang waterfall is a huge karst pool with an area of 15000 square meters, and the waterfall is formed on a calcified beach bar with a length of more than 100 meters.

Doupotang waterfall also has a special phenomenon: every time before the flood, the waterfall will send out "boom". The roar of "boom" is also called "roar waterfall".

Main attractions

When the water is flat, the flow of Baishui River is small and the water is clear. Doupotang waterfall is very beautiful and charming.

The water layer of the waterfall spreads evenly along the gentle surface of the waterfall and dances lightly on the scale of travertine beach. It is like a thin, translucent veil, or a plain silk fan that is open on one side. It is silvery in the sun, so it is called "bride's veil".

However, when the flood season comes and the Baishui River carries a large amount of sediment from the upper reaches of the river and turns yellow turbidity, the doupotang waterfall will disappear its former beauty and become extremely fierce and majestic.

The yellow and turbid river is like a runaway wild horse, and the cave formed by travertine accumulation on the left side of the waterfall will produce a peculiar whistle effect when a huge amount of flood passes by, giving out a deep and thick roar, so doupotang waterfall is also called "roar waterfall".

On the East Cliff of doupotang waterfall, there is a small waterfall flying down from the reeds. Before the water reaches the ground, the waterfall has dispersed into layers of water mist,

Passing by the small waterfall, you can see the clear sky, the soft rain, and the beautiful rainbow reflected in the sun.

There is a strong contrast between the slender and beautiful waterfall and the broad and majestic main waterfall of steep slope pond, but it seems to be combined harmoniously. This kind of waterfall combination is also uncommon.

Another feature of doupotang waterfall is the wide flat beach under the waterfall.

The beach is covered with dozens of small Bitan of different sizes. The shallow Bitan is only tens of centimeters, and the deep Bitan can reach several meters.

There are also fish and shrimp in Bitan, so the local Buyi people often catch small fish and shrimp in Bitan with nets in their hands.

During the rainy season, the water flow is very large.
