We set off by car and went to visit David Falls under the guidance of a tour guide. The bus arrived at the scenic spot in less than 10 minutes. The tour guide bought tickets and took us into the scenic spot. Few tourists from Europe and America came here. On the contrary, most of the locals came from young people. The most famous waterfall in the area, formed at the outlet of Lake Feiwa, is not very watery in the dry season. It is said that only in the rainy season can a real waterfall feel. Walking to the railings, you can see an underground karst cave below the waterfall. Clear water falls into the cave without trace, while the upper reaches of the cave is a deep river valley. To be fair, this waterfall is quite common, but because of its moving story, it is popular with tourists. The guide told us that the name of the waterfall originated in 1961. There was a young couple from Switzerland. The man's name was David. He took his beloved girlfriend to Nepal to explore on foot. He found the devil waterfall and was immediately attracted to it. At that time, there was no path and no security railings. After a while on the ground, the two men went down to the cave. Because the ground was wet and slippery, David's girlfriend fell into the turbulent River accidentally. When David saw this, he jumped down to save them. As a result, both of them were engulfed by the waterfall. In memory of David and his girlfriend who lost their lives here, the waterfall is called David Falls. Such a touching love story adds color to this ordinary scenic spot, but tourists are still in low spirits. Many people just look around and turn away. After viewing the waterfall, we carefully looked at the statue of Shiva above the waterfall and the nearby shrine, where the local people worshipped or put carmine on their foreheads with great devotion.

    30 NZD tickets go in and walk for a few minutes to the waterfall. The water flow is very fast. I heard that the magic is that there is always water flow. I don’t know where the water comes from. There is a big pit at the bottom. There is no water increase.

    David Falls is located near Bokhara, Nepal. It is the dry season to enter the scenic spot. The river bed is exposed and the raging river cannot be seen. There is only a small stream under the staggered river bed. Finally, it falls into a huge underground cave and disappears. There is no effect of forming a waterfall. There are guardrails around the cave to prevent tourists from sliding into the bottom of the valley. Because it is a dry water period, there is not much water in the cave, and tourists can go down, and the inside is dark. The young Swiss man and his partner, formerly named David, had gone down to the cave to explore and died in Huangquan, so the waterfall was named David Falls, which had a warning meaning.

    David Falls is the largest waterfall near Bokara. Below it is an underground cave, where hot air rises all the year round. Water vapor changes colors in the air, and rainbows are often seen. Its name comes from 1961, when a young couple from Switzerland, David, with his beloved girlfriend, went on a hike to Nepal and found the devil's waterfall, which immediately attracted him. At that time, due to the slippery ground, David's girlfriend accidentally fell into the turbulent river. When David saw it, he jumped down to save it. As a result, both of them were swallowed up by the waterfall. In memory of David and his girlfriend who lost their lives here, the waterfall was called David Falls. If we had seen Huangguoshu Falls, then the waterfall would be meaningless. I felt that the story of David was mainly touching.
