Jhor waterfall, also known as Gupha Waterfall (Gupha Jharana)[1] is located in the northern hills of Kathmandu near Tokha.[2] The stream from Shivapuri National Park feeds the waterfall. The waterfall is about 11 km from Ring Road (Samakhusi Chowk) from Samakhushi.[3] There is a temple of Shiva near the waterfall which opens on Saturdays and Mondays.[4][5] There is also a zipline near the waterfall that was constructed to boost the tourism.[6]
The waterfall is close to the city, hence it attracts people from Kathmandu,[7] especially during the summer.[4][8] The area is underway a tourism development project. A children park has been constructed a couple of hundred meters below the actual waterfall site.[9]
