The Nuranang Waterfall is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Tawang District of Arunachal Pradesh. It is a 100-foot cascade & most of the people don't know about it. It’s the very definition of a hidden gem! As it is near to jang Town, it is also called as Jang Falls. The waterfall originates from the Nuranang River, over the slopes of the mighty Sela Pass, which is a tributary of the Tawang River. The Legend of Nuranang Falls: According to popular legend the falls are named after a Monpa girl called Nura. Nura helped a soldier named Jaswant Singh Rawat in the 1962 Sino-Indian War to avoid capture by Chinese Forces. So, as an ode to her bravery, the locals named the waterfalls ‘Nuranang’ after her! If you’re heading up to Tawang on a road trip, I would highly recommend adding this waterfall as a pit stop. It’s a great way to break up the journey. #nuranangfalls #tawang #northeastindia #northeast #waterfalls #beautiful (at Nuranang Water Fall) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPi0BAshUkE/?utm_medium=tumblr
