I'm not a hater but, you know what the funny thing is ? The ticket booth and the entrance to the waterfall are 2 completely different directions. Entrance to the waterfall isn't being guarded and literally anybody can just enter. Naturally I've entered from a different direction and I did not see any personnel / security / any booth.

I went into the waterfall and, to be honest, there isn't much to see from the picture and most of the high reviews provided here are because:

People have not seen other better waterfalls This is a waterfall that allows people to swim quite deep into at the bottom part of the waterfall

When exiting the waterfall, this particular personnel for some reason instead of observing the safety of the people at the pool, choose to tell me not to lean against the railing and questioned me whether I have the ticket, in a very rude manner like I'm some sort of thief. I've explained that I literally did not see any booth (BECAUSE THE TICKET BOOTH AND THE ENTRANCE ARE 2 DIFFERENT PLACES), in which he demanded for me to pay for it. Naturally, I paid for it and went up the stairs and eventually found the booth to be on a couple minutes opposite sides of the road.

Worst waterfall experience ever just because there isn't any proper signage and the waterfall...
