China: Cloud Fall Cascades Over Nanchuan’s Jinfo Mountain

This is the stunning moment that a mesmerizing waterfall cascaded down the eastern slope of Jinfo Mountain, leaving viewers in awe with its “cloud fall”-like appearance. On May 10, 2025, in Nanchuan District, Chongqing, the video showed thick white clouds dramatically tumbling down the mountain slope like a massive waterfall. The breathtaking spectacle occurred at the eastern foothills of Jinfo Mountain, a region that is known for its unique topography, which contributed to the formation of such rare natural phenomena. In the video, the clouds poured over the ridge in powerful streams, creating the illusion of liquid mist plunging from the peak. According to local meteorological explanations, the “cloud fall” was formed due to a specific combination of warm and cool airflows along the mountain slope. When temperatures rose on one side of the mountain, clouds were pushed by the wind toward the cooler side, creating a “cloud fall”. The video ended with the rolling clouds continuing their dramatic descent, blanketing the forested slopes below in a sea of mist.

Abalone breeding is one of the pillar industries in Lianjiang County. As abalones have very strict requirements on their growing environment, especially the water temperature, fishermen in Lianjiang have adopted a way of breeding in different sea areas to improve the survival rate of abalones. Every year at the turn of spring and summer in April and May, abalones are sent to the northern sea area, where the water is cooler, to spend the summer, and then come back to Lianjiang when late autumn comes. In this way, not only is the yield of abalones increased, but also the quality is improved. (Xinhua/Zhou Yi)
