Tainan Travel

The renowned view that has come to be known as the “Dendrobium cascade” is situated at the Xizhou tribe of Hungs in Baihe District of Tainan. It came into existence when a retired resident by the name of Wu Ju-Cheng (former employee of Taiwan Salt Company) became interested in the cultivation of orchids. He came up with the idea to grow dendrobium on an old longan tree in his home. As the flowers were cultivated together, when they reach full bloom in April during the floral season, the sight of the flowers resemble the view of a running cascade, and hence the name.
