Davis Falls (Nepali: पाताले छाँगो) also known as David's Falls or Devi's Falls in English and known in Nepali पातालको छाँगो (Paatal Ko Chango) literally meaning “Underworld’s Waterfall” is a waterfall located in Pokhara in Kaski District, Nepal. The water forms a tunnel after reaching the bottom. This tunnel is approximately 500 feet (150 m) long and runs 100 feet (30 m) below ground level. On 31 July 1961, a Swiss couple went swimming but the woman drowned in the pit because of the overflow. Her body was recovered three days later in the river Phusre with great effort. Her father wished to name it "David's Fall" after his daughter. This is one of the most visited places in Nepal.
