1 Day Hukou Waterfall Tour from Xian

Our driver will pick you up in the hotel lobby in the morning, and drive to see the Loess Plateau. About 5-6hrs drive, you will arrive at the massive Loess Plateau area to view the special landscape at the north Shanxi Province. After visit, pay a visit to Hukou Waterfall to see Yellow’s river’s marvelous scenery. It is the 2nd largest waterfall in China, next only to the Huangguoshu Waterfall in the province of Guizhou.

The Yellow River bed in here suddenly shrinks from some 300 meters to around 50 meters, girdling the pools of the Yellow River water into a narrow gorge and rushing abruptly down from some 30 meters high into the gorge below, the torrential water running along a water-channel of some five kilometer long to the lower reaches. As the water-channel looks very nmch like the mouth of a pot hence the derivation of the name ” Hukou ” which means “mouth of a pot”. Bearing a magnificent momentum the Hukou Waterfall enjoys a marvelous natural landscape all round, being listed as a famous scenic resort in the country.   After the tour you will be back to Xian hotel around 9 pm.
