The Origin of Setawing Waterfall

Along the road to the location we can enjoy the greenery of the trees around and the rice fields area that are not too wide. This waterfall comes from various water sources that are above it, the shape of this waterfall resembles a staircase (steps) from above has 3x steps so that the effect of the falling water does not immediately fall down, but from the first step it hits the second step and then down, so the effect of the water splash and the wind blows are very relaxing. However, the obstacle of this waterfall is that water flows is not always heavy.

The water discharge will happen a lot in a rainy day, in other words it can be said that it is a seasonal waterfall. When dry season the water is decreased because the water sources run out for people’s daily needs. In the future, it is might be possible to engineer water from above in order to the water discharge can always be available continuously.
