Jiao Lung Waterfall, Cascading waterfall in Alishan Township, Chiayi County, Taiwan.
Jiao Lung Waterfall plunges 600 meters down a cliff of Mount Da Ta, consisting of four distinct drops through the mountainous terrain.
The natural formation has shaped the development of the Fengshan hamlet, influencing local settlement patterns and transportation routes over generations.
Local residents have integrated the waterfall into their traditions, naming it Jiao Lung, which translates to dragon in Chinese mythology.
Visitors should plan their trips during or immediately after rainfall periods, as the water flow diminishes significantly within days after precipitation.
The waterfall follows an exceptionally steep gradient, descending 1,300 meters over its 4-kilometer course through the mountain landscape.
