Another Huangguoshu after dark
By day you see the water's power; by night, light, music and technology give the fall a new face. In recent years, night tours and immersive shows have been launched at the great fall and Doupotang, with light projected on the plunging water and rock — an atmosphere wholly unlike the day.
Highlights
- Great fall night tour: light, projection and music give the fall many colours after dark;
- Doupotang night tour: an immersive show built on cultural stories, good for families;
- Themed night activities such as festival bonfire evenings vary with the season.
Planning and tickets
- Nature: night tours and shows are concession projects, separately ticketed and not included in the daily admission;
- Time: generally open in fixed evening hours; times follow the day's notice;
- Tickets: check the area's online channels or on-site counters;
- Tip: with a late finish, plan transport and lodging in advance.
Show tips
- It is dark and slippery — mind the steps and watch children and elders;
- With heavy mist, protect electronics;
- Keep order, watch from the guided zones, and do not cross fences.
