Nature is an amazing creator. This nature has gifted the world with amazing creations beyond our human eyes. Among them, ‘Upside Down Falls’, which can amaze our eyes, is a unique one.
Where is the upside-down waterfall?
Upside Down Falls is in Hawaii. Hawaii is home to some of the most spectacular mountain ranges in the world. Some of these mountain ranges in Hawaii are easily accessible to tourists. But most of them are hidden in mountain ranges, islands and various rainforests. Waipuhiyah Falls, also known as Upside Down Falls, is located in the Konahuanui mountain range in Hawaii.
You will be able to see this amazing upside-down waterfall while driving toward Kailua on Oahu’s Pali Highway. This Upside Down Falls is visible on the right-hand side of the road when traveling east on this highway, that is towards Kailua.
Nature of Upside Down Falls
This upside-down waterfall is not like the waterfalls you have seen before. Because the water of this upside-down waterfall flows from the ground towards the sky. It is said that the water of this waterfall never touches the ground due to the strong wind blowing from Mount Konahuanui. This looks like really powerful magic. But it is reported that the reason for this is the strong wind blowing very strongly.
It is a unique fact that you can see this great miracle that defies gravity only during the wet season, or after heavy rains and strong winds.
