Chandauli sits just south of Varanasi where the Gangetic plain begins to rise into the Vindhya foothills, and its forested southern reaches hold a scatter of waterfalls—Rajdari, Devdari and Lakhaniya Dari among them—that make it a popular monsoon-season day trip from the city. The Chandraprabha Wildlife Sanctuary protects the same forest belt, home to leopards, chinkara and a resident crocodile population along the Chandraprabha river. The best time to visit is October to March. Nearby points of interest include Rajdari Falls, Devdari Falls, and Chakia. Other notable highlights include historic and cultural significance in Chandauli, rich heritage and traditional architecture, and important religious and spiritual sites. It falls within Uttar Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh, India.
