The Heavenly Cloud Valley Waterfall[/caption] The Heavenly Cloud Valley Waterfall in Alishan National Scenic Area becomes a raging torrent during the plum rain season- a real sight to see. More than 1,800ml of rain has accumulated in the area since May.

The waterfall reaches a height of 250 meters. Most of the time, mountain hikers watch the waterfall from the bottom. However, a professional photographer recently managed to catch a breathtaking top-down view of the waterfall using a drone.

Not far from Heavenly Cloud Valley waterfall is Taiwan’s tallest waterfall, Jiaolong Waterfall. It reaches 846 meters. In the summer it becomes a popular sightseeing spot for nature lovers, making Taiwan’s wet season a little more bearable.    [SOURCE]
