What people say, in short
Jewel's indoor waterfall, the Rain Vortex, is the big draw: one local still feels a bit of awe walking in after many visits, and another suggests a fourth-floor balcony for photos with fewer people. Several suggest fitting it in on the way to or from a flight, especially on the day you leave. Suggested visits range from about an hour to a whole day. Not everyone is won over: one calls it essentially a shopping centre with a big waterfall, and another would skip it.
