正面觀看蛟龍瀑布

The majestic Jiao Long Waterfall, also known as the "Waterfall of Taiwan," is a waterfall formed by a fault, located on the tail ridge cliff of Ta Shan to the southeast of Fengshan. Its water source is Jiao Long Creek, a tributary of the Qingshui River upstream. It was marked as "Da Long" on hand-drawn maps from the Japanese colonial period, which means "great waterfall" in Japanese. The Jiao Long Waterfall hangs on a cliff that rises up to 1600 meters, with a drop of 846 meters. When the water flow is abundant, the waterfall can be seen splitting into two layers as it cascades down, resembling a giant white dragon. The powerful water flow allows one to experience the might of nature, and from a distance, it resembles a landscape painting, making it a limited edition beauty after heavy rain, highly favored by tourists and photographers alike. When the water flow is low, a large area of the mountain wall becomes visible, with the water falling in four layers into the valley. Therefore, it is recommended for travelers who wish to glimpse the magnificent Jiao Long Waterfall to visit during the rainy season.
