WATERFALLS:

PHONG-PHONGMA Waterfalls: One can see the beauty and majesty of the Nuranag fall near Tawangchu at jang. To say the least, it is thunderous and enthralling like an oration.

BAOTENG KANG(BTK)Waterfall: They say,” Watch it’s beauty for even the sun lingers wistfully here” and true to the saying, the waterfall is beauty personified in itself with the sound of the water like a perfect melody thus creating a perfect symphony.
