Overview

Trip Overview

For a first trip to Anshun, this route strings together the icons: the thunderous Huangguoshu Waterfall, the water-filled karst caverns of Dragon Palace, and the Ming-era village of Tianlong Tunpu. Three unhurried days leave room for the roar of the falls and the local accent of the old fortresses, letting you slow down in Anshun's landscapes like a local.
