Not far from Shifen, a district in Pingxi, New Taipei City, Taiwan, famous for its lantern festival, lies a picturesque scenic area along the upper reaches of the Keelung River: Shifen Waterfall Park. With a height of twenty meters and a width of forty meters, Shifen Waterfall is not only the widest waterfall in Taiwan, but is also regarded by various international travel channels as one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the world.

In addition, the beauty and uniqueness of Shifen Waterfall lie in its extraordinary terrain — the direction of the water flow is opposite to that of the rock strata. As a result, when the water reflects off the rocks, it takes on a golden-yellow hue. When the water rushes down rapidly and hits the rocks, it creates huge splashes, showcasing the site’s endless charm and atmosphere.
