Bigar Waterfall, Romania. the most beautiful waterfall in the world

In Caraş-Severin there is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the country, but also a unique cascade in the world. The Bigar Waterfall is placed by theworldgeography.com first among the most unusual waterfalls in the world, alongside spectacular waterfall in the US, Australia or Antarctica. The water that forms the waterfall flows into Minis over a calcareous cone with moss, forming a water curtain at the base of the cone. "The waterfall is located exactly on Parallel 45, which is also unique," notes the site.The water from the karst plateau above the Bigar (Liciovacea) comes out of the mountain through the Bigar outburst (and a part is found in the Mokeriş valley) and flows into the Miniş River, a river that flows into Nera, near Bozovici locality in Almăjul Valley .

The place is also called "Parallel 45" because it is crossed by the parallel 45 degrees north latitude. The water of the Bigar is extremely clean, leading to the capture of an important part of the water for the downstream trout on the Minis Valley (the solution is not the most suitable for the environment and the place, but in the communist regime, this is not taken into account , an example being the construction of the Crivina-Anina Thermal Power Plant, which disturbed the whole natural landscape).
A Banat legend says that the beautiful Princess of Ice, whose mortal face can only see it in the frozen mirror of pure mountain waters, lasts every winter the palace of cistar in Bigar, the place where the most beautiful waterfall in the world . The luster palace is, in fact, the frozen water of the waterfall, located exactly on Parallel 45, which divides the northern hemisphere of the Earth in half.

The Bigar Waterfall has serious competition at home. In Caraş-Severin County there are several waterfalls, of a special beauty, but have not benefited from the promotion that Bigar has enjoyed. The best example is Beuşniţa Falls, Lake Ochiul Beiului from Nerei National Park.
