Suptadhara Waterfall is located in Sitakunda Upazila of Chittagong District, Bangladesh.[1] It is known locally as the "Sleeping Waterfall".[2]
Etymology
Suptadhara gets its name from its distinct seasonal nature—it remains largely dormant and quiet during the dry winter months, only to transform into a roaring, majestic force of nature during the monsoon.[3]
Description
The waterfall is situated in the evergreen forest area of the Chandranath Reserve Forest Block within the Sitakunda Eco Park.[4] The eco-park is located 35 km north of Chittagong city, on the eastern side of the Dhaka–Chittagong highway and railway. Very close to this waterfall lies another one called Shahasradhara Waterfall.[5]
