There is a tourist attraction sleeping in Enugu. It’s the beautiful, ancient and mystic Awhum Waterfalls in Enugu State, Nigeria.

After watching the video above, you will not believe that a place like that exists in Nigeria and yet government didn’t invest towards making the place accessible through provision of road infrastructure and security which would attract more visitors on frequent basis which the government can monetize.

The waterfall is only accessible through a natural cave that is itself a beauty and a wonder to behold.

I understand that the waterfalls is situated within the land of the Awhum Monastery that is owned by the Catholic Diocese of Enugu which has converted the place to a place of seclusion and prayers rather than opening it up to tourists which is what such a place should be.

But I wishe the Enugu government can find a way to reach an agreement with the Catholic Diocese in Enugu so that the church can open up that area for government to provide the necessary infrastructure that would enable the waterfall become the choice place of tourists like it should be.

Please help expose this beauty from the East.

Nice, the state government should promote tourism in their states, it's a foreign exchange earner.

I’m just surprised that the place doesn’t get talked about the way it should and like the beauty and wonder it is.

Only some parts of Enugu City is having water scarcity not Enugu State in general, those on very hilly terrains and those with coal contamination.

Suitable for shooting a movie

They should pipe water from there to those areas.

Some parts of Awhum waterfall share the feel of the Hell's Gate National Park in Kenya.

Chai! Awhum monastery! Taking me back to memory lane
