Xiangyang Collapse, Mountain cliff in Lidao, Taiwan

The Xiangyang Collapse features an 800-meter vertical drop stretching across a 3-kilometer curved ridge at an elevation of 3450 meters.

Mountaineers first documented the cliff in April 1930 when an expedition team led by Takashige Yoshii reached the summit during the Japanese colonial period.

The mountain received its name from the Bunun indigenous people who called it 'Ragostaura' after a hunter who lost his life during a winter expedition.

The cliff face requires advanced climbing equipment and experienced guidance, with access through the Xiangyang Forest Recreation Area on the Southern Cross-Island Highway.

The metamorphic rock surfaces reflect sunlight with red hues during sunset, leading to its alternative name as Red Leaf Mountain.
