Golden Waterfall Introduction
The Golden Waterfall is located next to the Jinshui Highway in the ShuiNanDong area of Ruifang District, New Taipei City. Entering the Jinshui Highway from Dongding Road, you can see rocks stained golden along the stream. As you slowly walk to the Golden Waterfall, you will be greeted by the sight of turbulent waters cascading over the golden rocks. Like the Yin Yang Sea, the Golden Waterfall is another delicate masterpiece of nature. The Jiufen area receives much rainfall, exposing the "pyrite minerals" contained in the deposited ores, which sometimes mix with rainwater and flow out as springs. As these waters flow, they oxidize, forming a thick layer of rust that has become a famous landscape in the Jinguashi area. Beside the waterfall, there is also the majestic Mt. Jilong, which offers a distant view of the beautiful Yin Yang Sea.
