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.

In the video, the clouds poured over the ridge in powerful streams, creating the illusion of liquid mist plunging from the peak.
