Huangguoshu Waterfall is known as the largest waterfall in China. The waterfall, 74 meters high and 81 meters wide, is also one of the most spectacular waterfalls in the world. The river flows straight from the cliff more than 70 meters high into the Rhinoceros Pool. The sound is so loud that it can be heard ten miles away.

In the evening, when smoke from cooking was everywhere in the village and gathered in the air like clouds and fog, the scene became even more indescribable. The Baishui River originating from Leigongping meanders through the village. The river divides the Xijiang Miao Village into two.
