from brazil viral A video has forced netizens to bite their teeth. Some are calling it a ‘mysterious world’, while others are calling it ‘the door to heaven on earth’. Here we are talking about Fumasinha waterfalls hidden in the forests of Brazil (Fumacinha Waterfall) of. As magical and mesmerizing as this waterfall is, the path to reach here is equally deadly and hair-raising. Let us take you on a tour of this wonder of nature.
Fumasinha is a Portuguese word which means small cloud of smoke. This waterfall has been named so because of its unique behaviour. This waterfall falls from a height of 100 meters (ie 328 feet). The most surprising thing about it is that its water does not even touch the ground. Actually, due to the pressure of altitude and strong wind, as the water falls, it turns into a magical sheet like very fine fog and smoke.
When you stand between two huge and narrow rocks and look at it, it feels as if a divine stream is slicing through the clouds and descending directly to the earth from the sky. This is the reason why the internet public has become mesmerized after seeing this incredible sight.
Where is this ‘magical’ waterfall?
This waterfall is not on the roadside like any common tourist spot. It is hidden in the deep valleys of the Ibicoara region within the Chapada Diamantina National Park in a remote area of Brazil. This entire area is famous all over the world for its giant, strange and prehistoric rocks.
