Situated in Jingxi, Baise, Guangxi, Tongling Grand Canyon is a magnificent 4A scenic spot near the China-Vietnam border, only a short drive from Detian Transnational Waterfall. Formed by geological movements, this karst sinkhole canyon stretches 3.8 kilometers, linking multiple gorges, mysterious underground rivers and vast primeval rainforest.
Its greatest highlight is Tongling Waterfall, one of Asia’s tallest single-drop waterfalls, plunging 188.6 meters down the steep cliff. In rainy seasons, surging water crashes into deep pools, creating rolling mist and thunderous roars. Visitors can walk through the water curtain cave behind the waterfall and admire varied stalactites inside karst caverns. The valley shelters rare ancient plant species including tree ferns from the Jurassic age.
Along the winding stone trails, you can also discover ancient cliff burial relics with profound Zhuang ethnic culture. Cool and humid all year round, the canyon serves as a natural forest oxygen bar. If you love wild natural landscapes and hope to explore lesser-known border scenery, Tongling Grand Canyon is a fantastic addition to your Guangxi travel itinerary.
