Dudhsagar Waterfalls

There are higher waterfalls in India. This is located in luch tropical jungle. The waterfall is not vertical, it falls over the Deccan plateau. It is possible that we hear about this waterfall just because it is very popular tourism destination in Goa state, which is easily accessible for Europeans.

The falls lie tall in the Mandovi River's turning point and so are not mainly impressive during the dry season. During the cloudburst season however, the falls are transformed into one of the most influential falls in India. Dudhsagar Falls is listed as India's 5th tallest waterfall, and is 227th in the world at 310 m.
