- The Main Waterfall — A tall, single-drop cascade that pours into a cool, emerald pool; the sight and constant mist make it feel like its own little microclimate and it’s the most dramatic thing to stand in front of.
- The Cave and Sacred Spring — A shallow cave behind part of the falls shelters the spring’s source; locals and pilgrims consider it sacred and many come here for quiet reflection or to collect the spring water believed by some to have healing properties.
