    The shrine at the base of the falls is usually visited just before the monsoon when the water level rises. Locals say the Pulicara tribe used the surrounding forest for hunting, and the Kamma tribe built the shrine in the 1800s to thank the water for protecting their cattle. If you stay near Guntur, Treebo Abhi Suites is a short drive away and many guests spot the shrine on a walk to the falls.
