WHAT TO EXPECT?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Huiyao Waterfall (\u7070\u7aaf\u7011\u5e03) located in Pingxi District, New Taipei City.\u2002It is roughly 8 meters tall and a few meters wide, the waterfall boasts a deep pool suitable for swimming.\u2002The large cliffs near the waterfall attract thrill-seekers for jumps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But we personally prefer the second waterfall a few meters down the river. (There is a rope you can swing from). <\/p>\n\n\n

All in all both place are really nice. You can have a barbecue and swim in the pool. It really feels you are in the middle of nature (because you are dah) with a large pool of turquoise blue water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prefer going on a sunny morning. In the afternoon, almost the whole pool lies in the shadow from the trees surrounding the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also locals like to hang out there and have a barbecue with their entire family, so if you want it to be quiet, prefer going on a weekday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t forget your drinks and snacks (closest convenience store is 30 min walk + 15 min bus away) and sunscreen + mosquito repellent!
