How to go
If you want to know how to go, here are few suggestions for you.
1) It is possible to visit both the waterfalls in same day. But it’s quite harder for irregular trekkers. For those, you can visit the two waterfalls in two days. Each of the waterfalls is having a separate route.
a) From Toidu Para (তৈদু পারা), its 1.5 hours walking distance to the Upper falls/Toidu Jhorna-2. This path is easy to handle.
b) From Toidu Para, it’s around 2.5-3 hours of walking to reach at the Lower falls/Toidu Jhorna-1 (তৈদু ছড়ি ঝরনা-১). This path is slightly difficult.
It is possible to move from lower one to upper one easily. But it’s slightly difficult to move from upper one to lower falls. So if you plant to visit both the falls in same day, then visit the lower one first. I mean the (b) first, then climb to upper one. And return back using path (a).

This waterfall is known as Horinmara Kundo Waterfall (হরিনমারা কুন্ড ঝরনা). The waterfall has a beautiful basin underneath with pristine green water that was slightly colder. The waterfall was dropping directly on that basin. And it doesn't have any space at the front side (blocked by a small mound). That's why it is not possible to get a full view of the waterfall from the front (or any places).
Once upon a time, this area was having a lot of wild deers. However, by the grace of our greedy human nature, they have almost been vanished. During that golden era, lot of deers used to come here near the basin to drink water. This basin was always filled with water regardless the season. And the deers used to slack their thirst from here. And we shameless human used to hunt them from here. That's why the name of the waterfall is Horinmara Kundo Waterfall (হরিনমারা কুন্ড ঝরনা) or Horinkundo Waterfall (হরিনকুন্ড ঝরনা).
