Guizhou Special: Journey to the southwest: A visit to China's highest waterfall

Guizhou's geography is punctuated by hills and forests, but is perhaps best known among the Chinese for having the country's highest waterfall.

The 77.8-meter Huangguoshu Falls also figures prominently in Chinese fiction as home to one of the lead characters in the classic Journey to the West.

Two hours by bus from the capital Guiyang, the waterfall is part of a 450-square-kilometer cave and karst complex in the western city of Anshun.
