Overview
Key takeaway
No separate booking; park timed entry covers it. After the 2017 earthquake the waterfall was partly re-formed—view from the official platform only.
Time & cost
Plan 1–3 hours. Budget: Free. Hours: Viewable within park hours (peak 07:30–18:00 / off 08:30–18:00); it sits right at the Y-junction by the Nuorilang service/lunch stop, so it is easy to time as a midday pause..

Timing
Leave with hours in mind (Viewable within park hours (peak 07:30–18:00 / off 08:30–18:00); it sits right at the Y-junction by the Nuorilang service/lunch stop, so it is easy to time as a midday pause.). Weekends and holidays need extra queue time.
Pay
Nearby stalls usually take Alipay or WeChat. Foreign-card terminals are rare — set up Alipay before you go.
