11 kms downstream, from the Nagarjuna Sagar Dam are the Ethipothala waterfalls, a mountain stream cascading down the hills from a height of 22 meters, the Ethipothala waterfalls are a radiant sight of the power and beauty of nature. The dazzling, azure lagoon formed at the foot of the falls houses a first-rate crocodile breeding center which is open to the public. The 'Chandravanka' stream here plunges from a height of 21.3 meters into a lagoon and flows on through a green valley much frequented by tourists.
