After watching the sunrise, my next destination was finishing the prince henry cliff walk + Leura cascades.
Bottom right pic was the place that I managed to get myself out of the track the night before.

Different lookout points offer somewhat a different angle of the valley which can sometimes be very pretty!!!

And “tah dah!!!” The leura cascades is by far the prettiest cascades i have even seen before with all the coverings of ferns and bonsai like trees!!! Wished i could stay there longer but unfortunately my time was so limited :(
![IMG_2075 IMG_2075](http://lh4.ggpht.com/_y0ZDbsXLaEM/S_qYTpTrYOI/AAAAAAAAJfM/Vz1m3CWnnkM/IMG_2075_thumb%5B3%5D.jpg?imgmax=800)

And next, down to the bottom of Leura cascades!!!.Crossing through slippery rocks and fern bower which look a bit prettier in some sense compared to Malaysia ferns because it’s not as dense as Malaysia ones.

Another “tah dah!!!” and I’m suprised to met another quite old korean couple doing meditation there, which shows how good is this spot!! Words just can’t express how beautiful the place is, and the pictures i taken too doesn’t really do the place justice!!!

The water from the upper cascades flow over on top of this kinda massive rock and form the amazing falls and smaller cascades all over this massive rock.
![IMG_2134 IMG_2134](http://lh5.ggpht.com/_y0ZDbsXLaEM/S_qYiqI8BUI/AAAAAAAAJgE/gsPFTFnTg_o/IMG_2134_thumb%5B5%5D.jpg?imgmax=800)
The lower cascades is kinda surround by walls of sheer cliffs which is kinda nice!!!

Meditating near the falls was just simply AWESOME!!! The sound of water flowing, the freshness, the crisp cool air, the greenery around you just give you serenity and peacefulness!!!!

But again good times ended with my limited time, it’s time to get back to Katoomba to catch my bus to Blackheath, where another magical valley of walls and cliffs awaits me!!!!
Waiting for the bus near one of the grand hotel in Katoomba.
