    Hiking

    The lower waterfall is excessively crowded. The Insta-hotspot is a hole carved into the rock face, from which selfies are taken in front of the waterfall. To get one, you would have to queue for a long time. We skipped that and went straight to the upper falls - which are also more varied and beautiful.
