🌊 Ten Thousand Feet, Nine Turns Waterfall

#hkwatersports — Gulong Nine Waterfalls, Hongkong Nestled in the lush Gulong Gorge (Qingyuan region), the famous "Ten Thousand Feet, Nine Turns" waterfall series is a breathtaking cascade of nine connected drops, winding like a dragon through misty cliffs. Here's why it's an unforgettable natural wonder: --- 🌀 Scenic Overview A dramatic waterfall group cascading down deep canyons and cliffs—nine distinct drops flowing into serene pools. The tallest single drop (Yunlong Great Fall) plunges about 131 meters, creating roaring water curtains and striking spray vistas. 🌿 Nature Vibes Surrounded by untouched rainforest and pristine canyon terrain with lush tree cover—think ancient forest meets hidden river valleys. Compact boardwalk trails take you through bamboo forests, water-curtain caves, and even suspension bridges above the pools. 🕒 What to Expect Well-marked eco-trails guide you through all waterfall tiers—suitable for families, though some sections require steady footing. Expect about 2–3 hours for a full loop, with built-in scenic stops and viewpoints along the path. ⚠️ Visitor Tips Watch your step—rocks can get slippery and there’s occasional spray. Best visited after rain when water flow is strong and pools are inviting. Bring insect repellent, closed shoes, and budget for entrance and small extras like cable bridges or pool areas. --- If you're drawn to cinematic waterfall scenery and forested canyons, the Gulong Nine Waterfalls deliver beauty, drama, and refreshing escapes. With its winding tiers and river-fed pools, it stands out among waterfall experiences in the region—even if it’s a bit of a trek to get there. #gulongninewaterfalls #tenthousandfeetcascade #waterfalladventure #chinanature #scenichike #forestwaterfall #epicwaterfalls #rainforesttrail #waterfallnineturns #hiddengemchina #localfood #travel #staycation
