Niagara. That’s what Montenegrins call their waterfall, located near Podgorica. And although it falls short of its famous namesake in every respect, it still impresses with its beauty and helps you cope with the heat while enjoying wonderful views.
I decided to look into the history of Niagara’s appearance near the capital of Montenegro, the reasons for its name, and show you some photos. And of course, I will give you some tips for visiting and tell you the best way to get there.
One of the most memorable places in Ivano-Frankivsk region for me were Buchtivetsky and Krapelkovy waterfalls. I visited them when I first came to the Carpathian region and since then I have not only traveled there many times myself, but also took all my friends there, who asked me to show them something interesting.
Today I want to show you how I saw them and give you some basic tourist information for those who want to visit them.
I really love waterfalls. It’s my passion. Perhaps the reason for this is that I was born in a flat area and had never seen them before I started actively traveling by car. I even managed to find a small waterfall near the town of Volnyansk in Zaporozhye region, but it is man-made and very small.
Burbun Falls was not originally familiar to me. Moreover, I had never even heard of it. Just one of the evenings in Kamyanets-Podilskyi, I entered in my phone the query “What to see in the vicinity” and in addition to quite hackneyed places like Khotyn Fortress, I suddenly found several waterfalls. And who doesn’t know – this is my weakness.
Not thinking long, we decided to go on a trip to the waterfalls the next day. The first one on the way was Malijevica and the next one was Burbun. It was the one I was most eager to get to, as the photo reminded me of the Plitvice Lakes, which I had long dreamed of (and visited in 2023 while traveling in Croatia).
