Rajdari Falls
The most famous waterfall of the Mirzapur region โ Rajdari cascades dramatically into a natural rock basin creating a misty amphitheatre of sound and spray. Located in the Vindhya hills near Chunar, this fall is especially spectacular during and after the monsoon (JulyโSeptember) when water volumes are at their peak.

Devdari Falls
Located just a short distance from Rajdari, Devdari is the scenic twin waterfall often visited together in a single trip. The falls cascade over a wide stone face into a clear pool below surrounded by dense forest. The name Devdari comes from the "Deva trees" (Cedrus deodara) that grow in the region.
