Dadieshui Waterfall

Dadieshui Waterfall, Natural waterfall in Shilin Yi Autonomous County, China.

Dadieshui Waterfall is a natural waterfall in Shilin Yi Autonomous County in Yunnan Province, China. Water plunges roughly 88 meters down and spreads across about 30 meters wide, making it visible from several viewing points.

The waterfall lies where the Bajiang River leaves Shilin County, 18 km from the county seat and 27 km from the Shilin scenic area. Its flow is fed by the Bajiang, Maliao and Dake rivers, ranging from 140 cubic metres per second in the wet season to 3.2 in the dry season. During the 2010 drought upstream flow fell sharply and the falls nearly stopped. In 2003 it appeared in Jackie Chan's film The Myth.

The waterfall's older name, Dieshui Zhengyun ("layered water steaming clouds"), describes the mist rising from the falls. It is also called Feilong Pu, "Flying Dragon Waterfall". In the film The Myth, Jackie Chan's character leaps into the falls, a scene shot here. The site lies in Shilin Yi Autonomous County, 18 km from the county seat.

You can reach the waterfall by following marked trails and viewing platforms that allow you to see the water from different angles. It is a good idea to wear proper footwear and pay attention to weather conditions, especially during wetter seasons.

During the rainy season, the water turns yellowish because of sediments flowing down the river, a natural phenomenon you can observe clearly at this location. This seasonal change makes each visit different depending on when you come.
