Golden Waterfall, Jiufen

If you're planning a trip to Jiufen, you'll likely pass by Golden Waterfall 🏞️. Many people may not know about it, as most people head straight to the old street of Jiufen 🍵🏮. However, many tour operators often stop here before taking us for a walk.

💡 This waterfall is famous for its water flowing down the rocky cliffs, washed with copper and iron ore, giving it a golden glow ✨. It's incredibly beautiful when the sun shines, as if nature had created a golden backdrop for photos 📸. Many people even wonder, like us, "Is there really gold here?" 🪙

📖 A brief history: Golden Waterfall is located near the old gold mines in the Jiufen–Jinguashi area, which flourished during the Japanese colonial era. 🏯 However, the water flowing through the mine has been contaminated with minerals, resulting in this beautiful golden color. It's not pure gold that you can scoop up and take home 😂. However, it's a charming attraction, attracting tourists to take photos and capture the atmosphere.
