Located in the Surkhandarya region of Uzbekistan the Sangardak waterfall is a natural wonder that is often overlooked by tourists. This hidden gem is a must-visit for nature lovers and adventure seekers who want to explore the off-beaten path.
The Sangardak waterfall is surrounded by lush greenery and rocky terrain. The waterfall is fed by a natural spring that flows down from the mountains, creating a stunning cascade of water that drops over 50 meters into a crystal-clear pool below.
Getting to the Sangardak waterfall can be an adventure in itself. The journey involves a scenic drive through winding roads and rugged terrain, passing through small villages and farms along the way. Once you reach the parking area, you’ll need to hike for about 30 minutes through the forest to reach the waterfall.
As you approach the Sangardak waterfall, you’ll hear the sound of rushing water echoing through the trees. The sight of the waterfall is breathtaking, with water cascading down the rocky cliffs and mist rising up from the pool below. The area around the waterfall is also home to a variety of flora and fauna, including rare species of birds and butterflies.
Visitors can take a dip in the pool below the waterfall, which is refreshing and invigorating, especially on a hot summer day. There are also picnic areas and camping sites nearby, making it an ideal spot for a day trip or weekend getaway.
Upon bidding farewell to the waterfall, one feels that another empty niche in one’s mind has been filled with something bright.

And also let it play the melody of kindness and wise eternity on the strings of the soul.
