We got to the waterfall scenic park early by tour bus arriving at 0930 there were no large queues at that time also it was Wednesday so quieter than a weekend. We parted from our tour guide and met up with him for the return trip. This allowed us to see what we wanted to see and at our pace. We got around no problem with the help of our chinese friend. There are buses to Grand Water Fall and the smaller falls. We choose to pay the 50 yuan for the escalator rather that use the stairs about £2.50 each way. Better than aching legs. An umbrella is a must as even in April it was very hot. Plenty of toilets and water stations. We all carry hand sanitisers. The scenic area are amazing plenty of traders selling tourist goods and a large variety of food. A good day out leaving a 1800 hours. 10 photos of 250 taken by me alone. First waterfall is the Grand Water fall Second a wider but smaller Waterfall.

This is a good tribal village if you want to know more about the Dong minority tribe. At 10.00 am there is a short welcome performance at the village entrance gate. We put up a night at this tribal village and parked our car just outside the Homestay unit. They do charge an entrance fee to the village but free if you are above 60 years and during low season free for Chinese nationals from Shanghai. Interesting to see the authentic Dong village where the buildings are still well preserved and could see the people still use the stream water to wash. There is also a tribal performance for about 45 minutes at the centre square stage in the village at 7.00pm donning their cultural costume performing about their way of life, marriage custom and a Dong tribal version of Romeo and Juliet. Walk by the riverside to see the original house design entrance and circle back by the main road to have a good appreciation of this village. As you enter the gate about 100 metres is the museum that shows Dong cultural history. At night you can walk over to the hilltop to have a good night view of the village. There are may restaurants to choose from to taste local food. We had the barbeque fragrance pork rib ( local call it "Xiang Choo") which is good (actually is Black skin pig but fed with good grains and wheat hence the meat taste better)
