In the earthquake on August 8, 2017, the Nuorilang Waterfall suffered serious damage. On the afternoon of August 10, it collapsed, and the once magnificent waterfall no longer exists.
The former Nuorilang Waterfall was the widest travertine waterfall in China so far.
Summer is when the waterfall has the most water. You can see the most spectacular waterfall if you visit at this time. In midwinter, you will see the mysterious ice waterfall.
There is an observation deck opposite the waterfall, which is the best place to enjoy the panoramic view of the waterfall.
The waterfall is located in the center of Jiuzhaigou. There is a service center built around the scenic spot, which is the place with the most complete service facilities in the valley.

Nuorilang Waterfall is located in Jiuzhaigou, Sichuan Province, China, with an altitude of 2,365 meters, a width of 270 meters and a height of 24.5 meters. It is one of the large calcified waterfalls in China and the widest waterfall in China. In Tibetan, Nuorilang means male god, and also means tall and majestic, so Nuorilang Waterfall means a majestic waterfall. At 21:19 on August 8, 2017, Nuorilang Waterfall collapsed due to the Jiuzhaigou earthquake. The most classic scene of the famous TV series CCTV version of "Journey to the West", where the four masters and apprentices walked on the waterfall, "You carry the burden, I lead the horse" was filmed here.
Nuorilang Station itself has attractions. You can hike to the Nuorilang Waterfall, which is also a place with many tourists. You can’t appreciate its magnificence by looking at the waterfall up close. You must climb the opposite mountain to see its full view. The lake in the distance is layered and finally converges into a curtain of water that leaps down, majestic and magnificent.

It is one of the largest calcified waterfalls in China and also the widest waterfall in China. In Tibetan, Nuorilang means tall and majestic, so Nuorilang Waterfall means a majestic waterfall.
The Nuorilang Waterfall in winter presents us with a different style
Nuorilang, which means male god waterfall in Tibetan, is also the widest alpine travertine waterfall in my country. Standing facing the waterfall and looking up, you can see streams of water converging from the Nuorilang seas, flowing over the embankment through the trees on the top of the waterfall, like several white Hadas, rushing down, like the Milky Way falling into the sky.
After getting off the Nuorilang transfer station, you need to walk through an underground passage and then walk a few hundred meters to arrive. You must pay attention to the underground passage here, which is not very conspicuous. We walked around for more than ten minutes before we found the way =. =
Nuorilang Waterfall is also one of the iconic attractions of Jiuzhaigou. The waterfall is very wide and looks very beautiful with the red leaves in the foreground.
In addition, Nuorilang Transfer Station is the transfer point for the scenic area buses of Jiuzhaigou Sanjiaogou, and it is also the only place with a restaurant in the scenic spot. You can come to Nuorilang Restaurant for lunch.
My travel notes: Following the most beautiful autumn colors - Travel notes of Jiuzhaigou/Huanglong/Bipenggou in Sichuan http://www.mafengwo.cn/i/21345961.html
It is said that if you come back from Jiuzhaigou, you will not want to see water. The most amazing thing about Jiuzhaigou is the water. When I walked to Laohuhai, I believed it. When there is no wind, the water in Jiuzhaigou is really as still as a mirror and colorful.
Nuorilang Waterfall is a bit similar to Pearl Beach Waterfall, but the drop is not as big as Pearl Beach Waterfall. There is a viewing platform opposite the waterfall. Standing on the platform, you can have a panoramic view of the waterfall. Because it is summer, the amount of water in the waterfall increases, and the momentum gradually grows. The water falls on the rocks below the waterfall, stirring up thousands of water splashes, like thousands of silver beads, scattering everywhere. Nuorilang Waterfall is my favorite among the many waterfalls in Jiuzhaigou.
Nuorilang Waterfall is the widest among the many waterfalls in Jiuzhaigou. The top of the waterfall is flat like a platform. Legend has it that there was no waterfall here before, only a platform. One year, the monk Zharmud returned from a long journey with a palm leaf scripture, an iron plowshare and a hand-cranked spinning wheel. Ruoyiguo, a beautiful Tibetan girl from Lianmeng, quickly learned to spin thread with a spinning wheel. She set up the spinning wheel on the platform at the junction of the three valleys, so that the sisters passing by could watch and learn, and people called this place "spinning platform". The cruel headman Luoza thought she was doing something crooked, so he kicked her and the spinning wheel off the cliff. Immediately, a mountain torrent broke out, washing Luoza and her accomplices off the cliff, and the spinning platform became today's waterfall.
In Tibetan, Nuorilang means male god, and also means tall and majestic, so Nuorilang Waterfall means a majestic waterfall. The surging water flows from the Nuorilang Sea, flows down from the top of the waterfall, like the Milky Way, and shakes the valley. The water at the south end is huge, cold, and misty water vapor rises. In the morning sunshine, you can often see rainbows hanging across the valley, making this waterfall even more charming.
There is an observation deck opposite the waterfall. Standing on the deck, you can have a panoramic view of the waterfall. In autumn, the 300-meter waterfall, set against the backdrop of autumn colors and clouds, turns into a magnificent picture.
This seems to be the place where Journey to the West was filmed. It's super classic. I want to go there again.
It is majestic and spectacular, especially in autumn when paired with the deep yellow and crimson leaves.
A place worth visiting, a masterpiece of nature
It was winter when I went there, and the waterfall was frozen, which was a unique experience.
The most beautiful waterfall in my heart, Nuorilang, was taken away by nature. Although it is known as the widest waterfall in China, its water flow and drop are pitifully small. However, I will always feel that it is the best waterfall in my heart, whether it is the Niagara Falls in the United States or the Huangguoshu Falls in China.
Nuorilang Waterfall is probably the highest waterfall in Jiuzhaigou. It is worth seeing, but its scenery is inferior to that of Pearl Beach Waterfall.
Nuorilang Waterfall is located in the middle of Jiuzhaigou Valley and is one of the most quintessential attractions in the scenic area. It is especially beautiful when the waterfall freezes in winter.
Nuorilang Waterfall is a bit similar to Pearl Beach Waterfall, but the drop is not as big as that of Pearl Beach Waterfall. There is a viewing platform opposite the waterfall. Standing on the platform, you can have a panoramic view of the waterfall. Because it is summer, the amount of water in the waterfall increases, and the momentum gradually grows. The water falls on the rocks below the waterfall, stirring up thousands of water splashes, like thousands of silver beads, scattering everywhere. Nuorilang Waterfall is my favorite among the many waterfalls in Jiuzhaigou. Unfortunately, it was severely damaged by the earthquake a week later, which made me very sad. I am also glad that I can see the complete Nuorilang Waterfall, and its beauty will always remain in my mind.
It is said that a collapse occurred during last year's earthquake. Although it may not look the same as it did before, the rushing water and the huge white mist are still breathtaking.
In fact, the waterfall is quite beautiful. There is a wooden plank road where you can sit and put your feet in the water to cool off. However, we didn't do much because it was cold.
Nuorilang is the center of Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area. All three valleys meet here, and you have to reverse here to go to any valley. Nuorilang Waterfall is also the filming location of the ending of Journey to the West.
Nuorilang Waterfall is the filming location of the opening scene of Journey to the West. Although the water volume is not large, you can see the legendary blue icefall.
Although the tour guide had told us about the situation after the Jiuzhaigou earthquake, when we actually got there, my heart did tighten and I felt a little uncomfortable.
The width of the Nuorilang Waterfall has been reduced due to the earthquake, and March is the dry season, so there are only a few small waterfalls, and there is blue ice embedded in the stone wall on the other side.
However, the tour guide said that starting from April and May, the water flow of the waterfalls here will increase, and then the waterfalls will be restored to their previous state.
The big and small waterfalls have their own merits, moving like a dragon and quiet like a virgin. The most spacious waterfall in the group, with a width of 270 meters, is the Jiuzhai Waterfall, which is the loudest. At an altitude of 2,400 meters, the snow and water of ten feet rush violently, breaking through the lake and rushing into the forest, and the forest waterfall is world-famous. In spring and summer, the embankment is reflected by pine and bamboo, and in autumn, the hills are covered with red leaves. Water flows all year round, and in winter, the ice waterfall shines silver.
This is one of the famous waterfalls in China and is mentioned in many textbooks.
It is very beautiful, close to the drop-off point and the entrance of the scenic area. It is a beautiful view as soon as you enter. It is said that the earthquake some time ago caused the collapse of the Nuorilang Waterfall, which is a pity. It was once the filming location of Journey to the West. I can no longer see it when I watch it for the second time.
The scenery is really beautiful. Jiuzhaigou is all about seeing the water.
This waterfall is very high. I heard that it was used to film Journey to the West.
I will never see the grandeur of Nuorilang Waterfall again. Pray for the best.
I am very glad to have seen the scenery of Nuorilang in spring and autumn, which is deeply engraved in my memory.
It is also one of the filming locations in Journey to the West. "You carry the load, I lead the horse..." Do you remember? Haha
Very spectacular waterfalls, very beautiful and breathtaking.
Nuorilang Waterfall is 2,365 meters above sea level and is located near the Nuorilang Visitor Center.
This is the first attraction I saw in the scenic area. It is very spectacular. Because of its large span, it is easy to see the rainbow.
This is the first attraction I visited when I entered Jiuzhaigou. Nuorilang seems to mean male god. This waterfall is famous for its beauty. It is also the traffic intersection of Jiuzhaigou.
Journey to the West was filmed here, it is really beautiful!
This is a relatively large waterfall in Jiuzhaigou. Please see the picture.
Nuorilang Waterfall is not far from the tourist service center, more than 300 meters away. This waterfall is a bit similar to the Pearl Beach Waterfall, but it is not as magnificent as the Pearl Beach Waterfall. Nuorilang means magnificent in Tibetan, so why is it named this way? The tour guide on the tour bus said that the summer of Jiuzhaigou is in September, when the water volume is the most abundant. The water volume of Nuorilang Waterfall will be ten times that of the current one, which is really magnificent! I really want to live here for a year and appreciate the different beauty of this land throughout the year.
The most famous waterfall in Jiuzhaigou. It is well-known because of the movie "Journey to the West". The waterfall is actually quite high. Thinking back to the 1980s, when the movie "Journey to the West" was released, the four masters and apprentices plus the white dragon horse had to walk on it. It was really dangerous. I don't know how they overcame it at that time. Nuorilang Waterfall is one of the more special landscapes in Jiuzhaigou. It is very majestic and has the most visitors. Walking from top to bottom, tourists stop and walk. Stop here to take pictures. This attraction is one of the last few attractions on the tour route.
The filming location of Journey to the West is indeed spectacular, but it seems to have been somewhat damaged by the earthquake.
"Norilang" means "mighty and majestic" in Tibetan. It is a big waterfall at the intersection of the three valleys of Jiuzhaigou. It is very close to the center of Nuorilang. Get off at Nuorilang Center Station, which is about 300 meters away. The waterfall is very wide and high, but there are so many people! You can't avoid the crowds if you want to take pictures...
I have seen the Pearl Beach Waterfall, the others are just average, and the Pearl Beach is much smaller than the one in Norilang.
The Nuorilang Waterfall is not far from the center of Nuorilang. Although the water volume is not large, under the sunlight, you can see rainbows hanging across the valley.
Although the water flow in April is not that big, the waterfall still looks beautiful.
Different from the small-scale Pearl Beach Waterfall, the Nuorilang Waterfall is grand and majestic, like an adult.
"Norilang Waterfall" is located in Jiuzhaigou, Sichuan Province, 2,365 meters above sea level, 270 meters wide and 24.5 meters high. It is one of the largest calcified waterfalls in China and the widest waterfall in China. In Tibetan, "Norilang" means male god, and also means tall and majestic, so "Norilang Waterfall" means a majestic waterfall.
Nuorilang Waterfall, the largest waterfall in Jiuzhaigou, is very spectacular. It takes more than 10 minutes to walk along the plank road from Nuorilang Visitor Center. Nuorilang Waterfall is the filming location of the 1984 version of Journey to the West, and it is a worthwhile attraction. Seeing this attraction, it is as if the melody of "You carry the burden, I lead the horse" is in my ears, as if I see the four masters and apprentices going through hardships and walking on the road of self-cultivation and learning. However, this year's earthquake damaged it. I don't know how it is now, but I hope the damage is not too serious.
Nuorilang Waterfall means a magnificent waterfall in Tibetan. The waterfall is 2,365 meters above sea level, 270 meters wide and 24.5 meters high. It is one of the largest calcified waterfalls in China. Many TV dramas have been filmed here. It falls in multiple levels. A 140-meter-wide water curtain flies out from between the two mountains and falls straight down the hundred-foot cliff, forming a rare forest waterfall. There is an observation deck opposite the waterfall. Standing on the deck, you can have a panoramic view of the waterfall.
Spectacular and imposing, Nuorilang and Pearl Beach Waterfalls are a bit similar, but if direct permission is given, you should go to see all three waterfalls in Jiuzhaigou. You can’t miss seeing water after visiting Jiuzhaigou.
最大的瀑布,最好一早就去拍攝,因為人比較少
The Nuorilang Waterfall in Jiuzhaigou is the largest waterfall in Jiuzhaigou and is very spectacular. From the Nuorilang Service Center, you need to go through a tunnel and then walk a short distance to see it. However, this tunnel is often congested, and the entrance and exit meet here, which feels that it is not well designed. At an altitude of 2,365 meters, the waterfall is 270 meters wide, with a drop of 20 meters and a width of 300 meters. It is one of the largest travertine waterfalls in China and the widest waterfall in China.
The largest waterfall in Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area. It was winter when I went there, so the water volume was very small.
Nuorilang may be more famous because it is the filming location of Journey to the West or the central scenic spot of Jiuzhaigou. But after seeing the dreamlike water of Jiuzhaigou, Nuorilang seems much more plain.
I have been to Nuorilang Waterfall twice. The sun was setting on the first day, and I didn't take many photos. I arrived at about 11 o'clock on the second day, and the sun was shining. Most of the waterfall was frozen, and the amount of water was a bit pitiful, but the misty water mist produced an obvious Tyndall effect, and the light was very dreamy. The ice layer under the waterfall has a unique shape, crystal clear, and slightly blue. This is the legendary blue ice, which is said to be a wonder formed by the refraction of sunlight. Nuorilang Waterfall is 2,343 meters above sea level, 25 meters high and 320 meters wide. It is one of the large calcified waterfalls in China and the widest waterfall in China. Nuorilang means tall and majestic in Tibetan, so Nuorilang Waterfall means a magnificent waterfall. Nuorilang Waterfall is the symbol of Jiuzhaigou and the facade printed on the ticket. The viewing platform opposite the waterfall can see the panoramic view, but the position does not seem to be high enough, and there are too many trees in front.
It is definitely worth a visit. It is a first-class scenic spot in China. I will definitely go there again if I have the chance.
A must-see attraction, the waterfall view where the four masters and apprentices walked through at the end of Journey to the West is magnificent, and blue ice can be seen in winter
In Tibetan, it means a magnificent waterfall. It falls in multiple levels, with a 140-meter-wide curtain of water flying out from between two mountains and falling straight down a hundred-foot cliff, forming a rare forest waterfall. There is an observation deck opposite the waterfall. Standing on the deck, you can have a panoramic view of the waterfall. In autumn, the 300-meter waterfall, set against the backdrop of autumn colors and clouds, becomes a magnificent scene. Jiuzhaigou
The waterfall is beautiful and worth a visit, but there is no place to rest, so just sit on the ground.
I think Nuorilang Waterfall is more beautiful than Huangguoshu Waterfall. Maybe it presents a different scenery. In winter, the upper part is a rushing water, and the bottom is frozen. What a magical existence.
Look at the pictures, the scenery and people are beautiful~~~~~~
Nuorilang Waterfall is located in Jiuzhaigou, Sichuan Province, China, with an altitude of 2,365 meters. The waterfall is 270 meters wide and 24.5 meters high. It is one of the largest calcified waterfalls in China and the widest waterfall in China. In Tibetan, Nuorilang means male god, and also means tall and majestic. Therefore, Nuorilang Waterfall means a majestic waterfall.
There are some icicles on the edge of the waterfall, but it is not frozen as a whole. The advantage of the off-season is that there are fewer people. There are really few people. You can take pictures at will, and the transportation bus can stop near the waterfall, which is very convenient.
The largest waterfall in Jiuzhaigou, it is very good for aerial photography. There are many small scenes on the way from Nuorilang Station to the waterfall. It is better to take pictures at noon when there are fewer people. It is difficult to take a panoramic view because there are trees in front of it.
It's so magnificent and you're really amazing.
You can indeed see water droplets at the Pearl Beach Waterfall. They are especially bright and beautiful under the sun, much more beautiful than pearls. Water droplets of all sizes pile up together to form a mighty waterfall. Some water droplets splash like flowers, much like a pearl necklace worn on a girl's neck.
It's just so-so, probably because I don't have much affection for waterfalls. It's the largest waterfall in Jiuzhaigou, right at the Y-shaped intersection.
There is another landscape in Jiuzhaigou that you cannot miss, which is Nuorilang Waterfall.
Nuorilang Waterfall is not difficult to find. It is near the center of Nuorilang, next to the driveway. You can see it through the window glass in the shuttle bus when entering the ditch. The shuttle bus leaving Zezhawagou can drive directly to Nuorilang Waterfall. Therefore, I never left any footprints in the center of Nuorilang from beginning to end.
Nuorilang means majestic and tall in Tibetan, and the grandeur of Nuorilang Waterfall lies not in the drop, but in its breadth.
Standing in front of the Nuorilang Waterfall, you can feel the momentum of a thousand troops pressing in. There is a slightly higher viewing platform across the road, but the trees in front of it block your view. Looking around, the way to capture the panoramic view of the Nuorilang Waterfall is to rely on aerial photography.
It’s close to the Nuorilang Visitor Center. You can go there after dinner.
Nuorilang Waterfall is very spectacular, and listening to the sound of the waterfall is also an intoxication!
The waterfall with the largest drop in Jiuzhaigou is crowded with people.
There are too many people! It's beautiful only during the flood season, but my friend went there in winter and it was frozen and he said it was also super beautiful.
After enjoying the colorful pool, we took a bus back to the center of Nuorilang. It took only a few minutes to walk from the center of Nuorilang to Nuorilang Waterfall. It is the widest waterfall in China. Nuorilang means tall and majestic in Tibetan.
Nuorilang Waterfall is the widest waterfall in China. The ending theme of the 1986 version of "Journey to the West" was filmed here.
