"Taiwanese version of Niagara Falls" #Shifen Waterfall-Pingxi District, New Taipei City

#AprilGoodDestinations2025 Shifen Waterfall is located in Pingxi District, New Taipei City. This largest curtain waterfall in Taiwan is also nicknamed "Taiwan's Nicaragua Falls". Shifen Waterfall is located in the upper reaches of Keelung River. The waterfall has a drop of about 20 meters in height and a width of about 40 meters. When there is enough water, it flows down from the top of the waterfall with great momentum. The observation deck is the best place to view the waterfall and the best angle to take photos. In addition, Shifen Waterfall Park is also a good place for tourists to relax. The park is full of green trees and you won’t feel stuffy even on hot days. The cool breeze from the mountains, the shade of the trees and the water vapor from the waterfalls make it a great place to escape the heat on holidays.
