Ban Gioc is the probably the most
beautiful and imposing waterfall in Vietnam. It is situated in
Dam Thuy Commune, Trung Khanh district, near the
Sino-Vietnamese border, about 85km from Cao Bang and it takes
4 hours by car to go there.
Water flowing from the Quy Xuan river cascades over the
rocks produce water droplet columns that can be seen in the
distance. In the middle of the fall is a rock landing covered
by trees that divides the stream into three currents and
creates a thin mist that cools down the temperature.
At the foot of the waterfall is a large river that is calm as
glass, surrounded by many precious flowers. In the early 1920s, the
French started building cottages on the riverbanks, where they would
come to relax, hunt deer and fish. In fact, this is known for a
famous type of fish called
tram huong.
Ban Gioc fall is repeatedly immortalized in art, specifically
in original paintings and photography.
