Youngest Level City in Guangxi: Home to Asia’s First Transnational Waterfall
When it comes to the youngest prefecture-level city in Guangxi, which city will people think of? Guangxi's youngest prefecture-level cities include Hezhou, Hekou, Licai, and Chongzuo. But when it comes to the Asian first transnational waterfall, it is undoubtedly Chongzuo. Today, the editor wants to talk about Chongzuo, the youngest prefecture-level city, established in 2013.
Chongzuo is located in South-western Guangxi, bordering Nanning and Qinzhou to the east, and Bili to the north, and Vietnam to the west. The border line is as long as 533 kilometers, which is the longest land border of Guangxi prefecture-level cities.
Why do they say Chongzuo has a long history? Because as early as the Warring States period, Chongzuo belonged to the Bayi people, and Lingnan called Bayi land. After Qin Shihuang unified China, Chongzuo's jurisdiction belonged to the Xiongnu County, this is Chongzuo's earliest history.
Chongzuo is not only historically rich but also has abundant tourism resources. When we talk about Chongzuo, we inevitably think of Detian Waterfall. This Asian first transnational waterfall is the filming location for the TV series 'Flower of Fire', which was incredibly popular back then. The series' plot was exciting, and the beautiful scenery in it made people envious. One of these beautiful scenes is Detian Waterfall.
Detian Waterfall is located in Shulong Town, Daxin County, a national 4A scenic spot. It is connected with Vietnam's Banjo Waterfall, and is the first in Asia and the fourth largest transnational waterfall in the world. Detian Waterfall has a particularly large water flow, with an average annual water flow three times that of China's Huangguoshu Waterfall, so it is also known as the 'most beautiful waterfall in China'.
Chongzuo also has a very famous attraction that must be mentioned, which is Mingshi Pastoral. Mingshi Pastoral is also a national 4A scenic spot. It was also the filming location for 'Flower of Fire'. After the TV series became popular, the scenic area also became popular, and many tourists came here to see the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers, as if entering a fairyland. Perhaps this is what Tao Yuanming depicted as the paradise in the world.
When it comes to abundant tourism resources, besides the above two scenic spots, there are also famous places such as the Zuojiang Slanted Pagoda, the Dragon Palace Paradise Scenic Area, the Black River Scenic Area, and the Friendship Pass.
