High above the visible cloud deck. At about 70 kilometers altitude. There is a continuous haze of small particles at 60 kilometers. We plunge into the clouds and find ourselves surrounded by droplets of concentrated sulfuric acid. As we go deeper, the cloud particles tend to get bigger. The pungent gas, sulfur dioxide is present in trace amounts in the lower atmosphere. It is circulated up above the clouds broken down by the ultraviolet light from the sun and recombined with the water there to form sulfuric acid which condenses into droplets settles and at lower altitudes is broken down by the heat into sulfur dioxide and water again, completing the cycle. It is always raining sulfuric acid on Venus all over the planet and not a drop ever reaches the surface.
