Controversy

Situated within Yuntai Geo park, with a fall of 314 metres (1,030 ft), Yuntai waterfall has been claimed to be the tallest uninterrupted waterfall in China.^[5][6] However, in June 2024 a large metal pipe was discovered built high into the rock face.^[7] Officials stated that the pipe was to ensure tourists see a flow of water even during the dry season.^[7][8]
