the British to carry goods from kootupuza to them. It is believed that the
timber that was laid across the railway tracks was planted from here and
carried over the bridge. People started coming to Malabar after this bridge was

WATERFALL is a point in a river or stream where water flows over a vertical
drop or a series of steep drops. Waterfalls also occur where meltwater drops
over the edge of a tabular iceberg or ice shelf. Waterfalls can be formed in
several ways, but the most common method of formation is that a river courses
over a top layer of resistant bedrock before falling on to softer rock, which
erodes faster, leading to an increasingly high fall. Waterfalls have been
studied for their impact on species living in and around them.
