Nafa-khum, Waterfall at Remaikree River in Thanchi Upazila, Bangladesh

The Remaikree River drops approximately 25 feet over natural rock formations, creating a substantial waterfall with high water volume throughout the year.

The waterfall received its name from the Marma language, where Ngafa refers to Baghair fish and Khong translates to ground, reflecting local indigenous heritage.

Local Marma communities maintain strong connections to the waterfall, which serves as both a natural landmark and a traditional fishing location.

Reaching the waterfall requires a three-hour boat journey from Thanchi to Remakri, followed by a two-hour walk through remote terrain.

A population of nating fish inhabits a cave at the base of the falls, swimming against the current without managing to ascend the water barrier.
