About

A rocky river flowing down from the Meghalayan hills (India) — about 60 km from Sylhet city in Goainghat upazila. In monsoon, white water cascades over piled stones with the Indian hills as a layered cloud-shrouded backdrop. Possibly Sylhet's most photographed spot.

Access notes: Drive or CNG to Hadarpar; from there hire a country boat to Bisnakandi (15–20 min). In winter the water drops and you walk over stones instead of taking a boat.
