Sichuan Travel | Witnessing a string of eight waterfalls in the ancient Huangjing Forest of Gulin

After mentioning the must-visit attractions in Gulin, the ancient Huangjing Forest is definitely one of them, especially the Bajiedong Waterfall Group. Cascading from the top down, it forms a 1400-meter-long series of eight terraces, featuring a total of eight large and small waterfalls, truly a masterpiece of nature: 📍Location: Bajiedong Scenic Area, Huangjing Old Forest, Gulin County, Luzhou City, Sichuan Province 🌟Evergreen all seasons: As one of the few well-preserved subtropical primeval evergreen broad-leaved forests at the same latitude (28°N) on Earth, Huangjing Old Forest is evergreen throughout the year, even in the winter it doesn't feel bleak 🌟Rare flora and fauna: In Huangjing Old Forest, precious animals and plants can be seen everywhere. Looking up, you can see towering ancient trees, including many national first and second class protected plants such as Davidia involucrata, Taxus chinensis, and Alsophila spinulosa, as well as protected animals like the fragile gecko, masked palm civet, and plateau frog 🌟Magical landforms: The Danxia landform area of red sandstone canyons from the Cretaceous period is clearly visible here, and if you go deeper, you can even see dinosaur footprint fossils 🌟Waterfalls in series: The water of the Mangtong River breaks through the peaks and falls straight down, forming the Bajiedong Waterfall Group with eight terraces of rapids, with a total drop of 120 meters, which is spectacular 🌟Baiyan Rock Carvings: On the Baiyun rock, there are many inscriptions such as 'Splitting Bajiedong, flying out of thousands of mountains, the cloud swallows the border sun, the spring sound echoes a hundred valleys. The honor of being a marquis lasts forever, while being a guest lasts only a decade. Having tasted all hardships, nothing compares to the leisure of the forest crane.' and 'The hidden cliff with flowing springs and dark walls, the strange peaks and ridges teasing the cold mist, where the snow melts at the cave's mouth and the clouds part, it's as if there's another heaven beyond this world.', adding to the historical depth of Bajiedong
