Cliff-top Starlight Pool Guesthouse: Yaojia Waterfall View at Huangguoshu

Yaojia Waterfall View Cliff Guesthouse Nestled in the embrace of mountains in Anshun, Guizhou, Yaojia Waterfall View Guesthouse is located in Fanhua Village, Pogong Town, Guanling County. Adjacent to the Shuihuang Highway and just a 10-minute drive from Huangguoshu Waterfall Scenic Area, it faces the Baling River Bridge across the valley and directly overlooks the undeveloped natural wonder—Dishui Beach Waterfall. Perched on a 1,200m-high cliff, the milky-white building resembles a celestial dwelling among clouds, creating a picturesque harmony with green mountains, flowing clouds, and cascading waterfalls, exclusively enjoying the magnificent karst landscape. The guesthouse was transformed from an old building, with the design team embracing the concept of "coexistence with nature" while preserving the original framework and reshaping it into a minimalist milky-white structure. Floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows bring the mountains and sea of clouds indoors, while the infinity pool suspended in mid-air serves as the masterpiece—reflecting the blue sky by day and transforming into a "starry river pool" by night. The public area features a 270° massive glass window like a dynamic landscape painting, with reading areas, tea rooms, bonfire platforms, and camping lawns scattered throughout, making every corner a scenic spot. Rooms named after water elements like "Waterfall" each hide thoughtful details. Huge floor-to-ceiling windows directly face the Baling River Canyon or Dishui Beach Waterfall. Wake up to rolling sea of clouds, enjoy sunset-drenched views at dusk, and gaze at the low-hanging stars at night. The rooms feature full-floor heating, Dyson hair dryers, Harman Kardon speakers, Kenwood kettles, and bedding customized to five-star hotel standards. Bathtubs are placed by windows (in select room types), creating the sensation of bathing with nature. Mountain living proposals blend wilderness and healing! Morning yoga, plant dyeing, handmade candle crafting, and tea brewing around the stove let you experience the healing power of slow time. The transparent glass pool mirrors the layered mountains—dive in or lounge by the poolside to capture stunning photos that make you appear to be swimming in a painting. Explore the surroundings: hike to Dishui Beach Waterfall to feel the mist on your face, or drive to Huangguoshu Waterfall, Tianxing Bridge, and Yao ethnic villages to experience Guizhou's magnificent natural and cultural heritage.

Huangguoshu National Park

Huangguoshu National Park is a rare large-scale waterfall complex in China, the most famous is undoubtedly the Huangguoshu Great Falls, with a drop of up to 77 meters and a width of 101 meters, majestic, known as "Asia's first waterfall". There are several other waterfall attractions in the park, which are great for those who want to immerse themselves in the magnificent views of nature and breathe fresh air. Itinerary Recommendations: The day trip mainly focuses on the area around the Yellow Fruit Tree Falls. It is recommended to arrive at the scenic spot before 9am. You can start from the "Waterfall Front Observation Deck" and feel the shocking scene of the surging water. Then walk the "Shui Cave" - ​​through the cave you can hear the roar of water up close, super immersive. Along the way, you can also walk to "Douqing Waterfall", which is downstream of the yellow fruit tree. Along the way, the woods are dense, the air is fresh, and the view is very comfortable. At noon you can dine at a nearby rest stop and try Buyi-style snacks. Must-play items and photo spots: 1. Yellow Fruit Tree Falls Front Observation Deck: Photography "big water straight down" is inevitable first choice, usually more travelers, it is recommended to arrive early. 2. Shuichi Cave: Looking out from the back of the cave, fully experience the waterfall curtain effect, you can play in the water but pay attention to safety. 3. Steep Waterfall Nature Trail: Suitable for those who like nature and shooting close-ups, the forest along the way, the photo effect is particularly fresh. Attraction Tips: 1. Open all day year-round, it is recommended to avoid holiday and weekend peaks, with relatively little crowds on weekdays for easier photography. 2. Remember to bring a waterproof jacket or raincoat, near the waterfall photography easy to get wet, especially the water cave location. 3. Wear non-slip shoes, some trails are more wet and slippery, safety first. 4. Note the waterfall area mobile phone is prone to moisture, take pictures quickly, or prepare a waterproof case. 5. The park is wide, it is recommended to plan a good walking route to conserve physical strength, you can consider taking the park shuttle to save time. Notes: 1. Yellow Fruit Tree National Park is widely distributed, and some attractions require walking. 2. The park has the most water in summer and the most spectacular views, but some locations are relatively wet and slippery, walk carefully. 3. Pay attention to scenic spot announcements during the rainy season, and occasionally there will be temporary control of some trails. Personal experience: This time I went to Guanling Douqi Waterfall. The water mist of the waterfall is scattered under the sun. The whole waterfall is crystal clear. Every photo I took is a natural blockbuster. The tree-shaded trails are fresh and comfortable to walk around and feel cool even in the hot summer. The sound of the waterfall was shocking and the scene was truly more spectacular than imagined. If you like to be close to nature, this is definitely worth a visit! Today's sharing topic: #Yellow Fruit Tree Waterfall #Natural Landscape #Guanling Travel #Waterfall Photo #Outdoor Play
