Khandadhar Falls, Sundagarh, 244-meter waterfall in Sundargarh, India
The Khandadhar Falls cascade down steep rocky cliffs through dense forest terrain, creating white streams of water against dark stone formations.
The falls witnessed numerous tribal gatherings during India's independence movement, serving as a meeting point for regional freedom fighters in Odisha.
Local tribes gather annually at the base of the falls to perform traditional ceremonies that honor the water spirits of their ancestral lands.
Visitors need to undertake a moderate trek through forest paths to reach the main viewing platform, requiring sturdy shoes and water supplies.
The waterfall's name translates to 'broken sword' in reference to the angular rock formation that splits the water flow into two distinct channels.
