Huaggoushu Waterfall is known as the largest waterfall in Asia. And is the 3rd largest waterfall in the world. The sound of the waterfall can be heard up to 4 kilometers. It is a very beautiful waterfall. The waterfall receives water from the Bai Sui River. The scenery of each waterfall layer is very beautiful. To visit the waterfall, you have to take a car from the service center. Which will send tourists to walk around the waterfall at the point and then walk to see the waterfall on each floor. For tourists who want convenience can buy a VIP ticket which according to the stopover, there will be snacks and drinks as well.
