In addition, there are other falls in the area such as the Luositan Waterfall and the Yinlianzhui Waterfall.

Huaxi
Huaxi - the "gem in Guiyang" - is a natural reserve known for its crystal-clear water, grotesque stalactites (cylindrical or conical deposits projecting downward from the roof of caverns as a result of dripping mineral-rich water), and stalagmites (deposits projecting upward). Here, one can not only enjoy the Lusheng (reed-pipe) evening parties with the ethnic folks, but can also visit ancient monasteries and towers in the village of Gaopo - the highest mountainous area in Huaxi. The rituals and costumes of this community are different from the immediate Miao communities.
Kaili
Kaili is the capital of the Southeast Guizhou Miao & Dong Nationalities Autonomous Prefecture. There are many grand ethnic festivals in the region. The wooden drum dance is an important festival for the Miao of the Kaili area. In the hot summer, the Miao girls, living several miles away, will come with their parents to dance the wooden drum dance. In this wooden drum festival, while the young girls are dancing to the rhythm of the wooden drum, the young men are looking for their life partners. When the curtain of night comes down, the young women and men will express their affections for each other by antiphonal singing
