Hundred Dragon Waterfalls (藏龙百瀑)
Hundred Dragon Waterfalls (藏龙百瀑 Zànglóng Bǎipù) is the largest waterfall cascade in Zhejiang province, located in the scenic mountains of Anji County. The name translates as "Hundred Dragon Waterfalls": over a hundred streams plunge from sheer cliffs, creating a mesmerizing sight. The main gem is the three‑tiered "Long Dragon" waterfall (长龙飞瀑) with a height of 60 meters.
You will walk along shaded trails beside rushing streams, climb to the viewing platform (861 m) which offers a panorama of endless bamboo forests, and cool off at the foot of the waterfalls. This is an ideal place for nature lovers, hikers and those seeking beautiful photos.
