The Maria Cristina Falls are often referred to as ‘twin falls’ as the flow of water is separated by a rock at the brink of the fall. Some describe it as the ‘now-you-see-it-now-you-don’t falls’, as 90% of the flowing water is often diverted for the generation of hydroelectricity by the powerplants. Still, the grandeur and natural beauty of the cascading torrents is splendid and alluring enough to draw the attention of many visitors.
