A controversy over a waterfall has cascaded into a social media storm in China, even prompting an explanation from the water body itself.
A hiker posted a video that showed the flow of water from Yuntai Mountain Waterfall - billed as China’s tallest uninterrupted waterfall - was coming from a pipe built high into the rock face.
The clip has been liked more than 70,000 times since it was first posted on Monday. Operators of the Yuntai tourism park said that they made the “small enhancement” during the dry season so visitors would feel that their trip had been worthwhile.
“The one about how I went through all the hardship to the source of Yuntai Waterfall only to see a pipe,” the caption of the video posted by user “Farisvov” reads.
Because you think you’re seeing a purely natural wonder but it turns out to be at least somewhat orchestrated.
It doesn’t take away the beauty of what you’re looking at, but it does take away some of the feeling behind that beauty if that makes sense.
How is it orchestrated? What you see is what nature did. The water can be controlled somewhat because of engineering but it doesn’t change the features of the fall as nature made it
I’m not arguing against you, just not getting your perspective (which I’m just trying to understand)
If you can turn off the falls whenever you want, I’d call that orchestrated.
I mean, they put lights on with colours at night… And there is a whole boulevard built around them so you can see them better
Would you call that orchestrated?
Yes?
Ok, I think I get your point now!
Cheers!
