WATER CASCADE....

September 19, 2025 12:14pm CST
It is Chaparai waterfalls of eastern Ghats of Andhra Pradesh. It is only a seasonal attraction. Rest of the time the flow is very low. Now we have moderate flow. It is encircled by dense forests on all sides, Popular for picnic spots and film making. The waterfalls feature smooth slanting rocks and natural water slides. Even without water we can enjoy the rock structure and lush green forests here. The rocks are so slippery. Visitors are enjoying like anything. They try to stand balancing themselves but they fall finally. Some are sliding along with the flow. We also had a good time watching their joy. After overcoming fear we prepared to enjoy in the water.Here I made a mistake. I was unable to balance myself first in that but I went to the rescue of someone who is about to slip..I couldn't help that person ..as I have fallen twice in the process.. I am glad that I protected my head from hitting a rock while losing balance. But I ended up biting my cheeks and tongue.Small amount of blood worried me alot. But that controlled within a minute without any aid. It is too dangerous here. locals said It is Not only for its hard rocks, also flow is unpredictable.Without any hint water flow suddenly increases if any area has rainfall in ghat.It is death spot too.I'm not copying the word from locals.I felt it personally after my incident. Anyways I am happy for being here atleast once in my life...it is more than enough. I never visit this site again.You can't come out without getting a blow ,That is the mark it is carrying since years. Although I got a blow....I cannot stop admiring its beauty.

I'm glad you only had a minor injury and wish you didn't get that... It's always nice to see these places in our native country but some places are dangerous and we need to think hard about whether we NEED to see them or if we just WANT to see them. I have traveled in a lot of the US but still haven't gone some places. I don't like large cities; I don't like high traffic areas and don't like being in big crowds of people plus, I don't like tall buildings. I HAVE traveled in some large cities and had trouble with the traffic in some of them. I HAVE been up in a skyscraper and hated every minute of it. (I don't look out windows in a building more than two stories tall. I am scared of heights.) Pretty and I rode an elevator that was made of glass and I closed my eyes and held onto the railing in the elevator until Pretty led me off of it.
