Kakolat
Historical  and  mythological  our  eminent  Kakolat  is  situated  on  a  very  sweetly  beautiful  hill  named  Kakolat  hill.  Although  every  inch  of  kakolat  is  panoramic  view  as  the  gift  of  goddess  nature  but  sweet  spring  of  Kakolat  is  the  supreme  bliss.  It  is  a  waterfall  in  Govindpur  police  station,  about  21  miles  away  from  Nawada.  After  going  9-1/4  miles  from  Nawada  on  Ranchi  road  ,a  pucca  road  known  as  Govindpur  Akbarpur  road  diverts  from  there  .Just  below  the  fall  there  is  a  deep  reservoir  natural  in  character.  

Kakolat  Fall  is  a  popular  fall  in  Bihar.  Many  people  come  for  picnics  from  different  places  in  India  in  the  summer  season.

The  fall  is  about  150  to  160  feet,  from  the  ground  level.  The  scene  is  panoramic  due  to  all-round  green  forest  area,  which  is  very  pleasant  to  the  eyes.  A  legend  is  prevalent  that  in  Treta  Yuga  a  king  named  was  cursed  by  a  rishi  and  had  to  take  the  shape  of  a  python  and  lived  here.  The  place  was  visited  by  the  great  Pandavas  during  their  exile  and  the  accursed  king  got  salvation  from  the  damnation.  The  king  after  getting  rid  of  the  curse  proclaimed  that  one  who  would  bathe  in  the  waterfall  will  not  take  the  yoni  of  snake  and  that  is  why  a  large  number  of  people  from  far  and  near  bathe  in  the  fall.  A  big  fair  is  held  on  the  occasion  of  Baisakhi  or  Chait  Shankranti.  

How    to    reach    Kakolat

By    Air
The    airport    nearest    to    Kakolat    is    at    Gaya  but  it  doesnÂ’t  have  regular  flights.    One    can    also    take    a    flight    to    Patna  ,    which    is    linked    to    almost    all    the    key    cities    of    India.

By    Rail
Nawadah  has  its  own  railway  station  which  is  linked  to  Gaya  JN.    However,    the    railway    station    of    Gaya    is    better    connected    with    the    major    cities.  One  can  reach  Patna  either  by  rail  or  air  and  can  easily  get  a  taxi  from  there  to  reach  Kakolat.

By    Road
Kakolat    has    a    good    road    network  because  it  is  located  on  NH-31      that    connects    it    with    some    of    the    major    cities    of    Bihar    and    India.
