Geli Ali Beg Waterfall (Template:Langx)[1][2] is located in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, which lies some 130 km north of Erbil.

The waterfall is named after the Yazidi prince, Mîr Elî Beg who was executed by Prince Muhammad of Rawanduz at this valley at the end of 1833 for refusing to convert to Islam.[3][4]

It featured on the 5-dinar note issued 1978–1990.
