Golden wonder

A bumpy bus ride out of the city takes visitors to what is undeniably Linfen's star attraction - the Hukou Waterfall. This is the second-largest waterfall in China and the largest yellow waterfall in the world.

The middle reaches of the Yellow River flow through the Jinxia Grand Canyon and cascade over rocks, throwing up a spray that creates a stunning rainbow over the waterfall.

Visitors can climb down closer to water level and stoop in the cold damp Dragon Cave while the roaring water goes past.
