A waterfall in distress

There is still a signboard

Thirty years ago this was a serene place with a beautiful river with waterfalls and flowing into a patch of wetlands. Now resorts and hotels are filling up the beaches. Currently, a new road is under construction, threatening the very existence of the waterfall. Probably it will have disappeared in a couple of years....

Can there still be a waterfall in this mess?

It must have been a nice place.

This is all that is left of the former ticket counter

Once the management must have had ambitious plans for this place

The remains are still visible.

The waterfalls is still there

That there still is a waterfall, comes as a pleasant surprise. The volume of water is not large and depends on the season. But the water is clear and cooling. The beautiful colours of the rocks enhance the peaceful atmosphere of the place.
