The four-stage stadium, which is at an elevation of approximately 1,600 feet [310m] and has a width of 100 feet [30m], is one of the highest waterfalls in India. Dudhsagar Waterfall, which means “Lake of Milk”, is a Goa landmark that gets its name especially during monsoon season.
Here are some fun stories about Dudhsagar Falls
The Goans believed that there was once a princess who would come to the lake and take a refreshing dip. He would bathe in the lake with his girlfriends every day, and once while drinking milk from his golden jar, he giggled and laughed. The prince, who was passing by, stopped to see the laughing man after hearing this. The maidens noticed this and made a curtain for the princess by pouring milk into a jar in front. Dudhsagar Falls is the name of this milk curtain.
