Absolutely stunning! I've never seen a hot spring waterfall before!

📍Address: Qiao Wo Town, Pu Ge County, Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Xichang City, Sichuan Province (navigate to "Luoji Ninety-Nine Mile Hot Spring Waterfall") 🌋Attraction Overview: As the world's largest hot spring waterfall, the 80°C sulfur spring here cascades down from a 40-meter-high cliff, forming cascading natural hot spring pools.

In 2023, it was listed as a "World Geopark" by UNESCO. 📸Top 3 Must-See Spots: 1️⃣ Main Waterfall Viewing Platform (💰Free) It is recommended to arrive before 8:00 am. When the mist is rising, it looks like a fairyland. A telephoto lens can capture the effect of "the Milky Way falling from the sky." 2️⃣ Cliff Hot Spring Pool (💰Free) A private hot spring surrounded by natural volcanic rock, the water temperature is around 42°C, and the view of the terraced fields below is super healing. 3️⃣ Rainbow Slide (💰30 yuan/time) A 300-meter-long glass slide passes through a bamboo forest and ends directly at the hot spring area. 🚗Transportation: ▫️Self-driving: Navigate from Xichang to "Luoji Ninety-Nine Mile."
