To the 3-storey waterfall to cool down in Tuyen Quang

About 70km from the center of Tuyen Quang city, Ban Ba waterfall (in Ban Ba village, Trung Ha commune, Chiem Hoa district, Tuyen Quang province) is an attractive destination for tourists to experience, especially in summer, thanks to its green natural landscape with interesting outdoor activities such as camping, SUP rowing, trekking,... Ban Ba Waterfall is located in Ban Ba Waterfall Eco-Tourism Area, which has been certified as a National Scenic Attraction since 2007 but has only been put into tourism  exploitation in the past few years. Ban Ba Waterfall is also one of the longest waterfalls in the north with a length of about 3km. Ban Ba Waterfall consists of a series of continuous waterfalls with 3 large floors, including: Tat, Tat Cao, Tat Gio, at the same time pouring water vertically from a height of tens of meters into the waterfall and there are many small waterfalls around. The first waterfall – Tat is considered to have the most majestic and poetic appearance. The area at the foot of the waterfall is often called "Dragon Canyon" by locals because it has a cliff that resembles a rolling dragon and has an underground geyser that spews out like the image of a dragon spraying water. The second waterfall layer is more difficult to conquer than Tat Cao, divided into two branches that fall down, like two white silk strips winding in the middle of mountains and forests. At the foot of the waterfall there is a clear blue water called the "abyss". This is an ideal place for visitors to experience and relax on the uniquely shaped stone slabs. The last layer is also the most difficult place to conquer, the Slap Wind layer that flows along the limestone slabs into the abyss called "Vu Linh" (sacred abyss). At this waterfall, visitors can immerse themselves in the cool blue water, listen to the sound of the cascading waterfall and the songs of wild birds... Because the waterfall has a large length, visitors who want to explore all the layers of the waterfall often choose trekking in a day with many activities such as: walking along the waterfall, exploring the waterfall, bathing at the foot of the canyon, enjoying a meal in the cool water,... Visitors can also prepare their own food and drinks when experiencing the waterfall, but be careful not to litter, preserving the landscape and surrounding environment. The waterfall has 3 floors, but the conquest journey will pass through two floors: Tat and Tat Cao. Particularly, Tat Gio - the highest waterfall has its own exploration route. Due to the capacity and limited impact on the environment and ecosystem at Ban Ba waterfall, the tour here has a limited number of visitors participating every year. Most tours are open for sale on a fixed schedule. Coming here, in addition to trekking to explore the waterfall floors, visitors can combine to participate in internal activities such as: SUP rowing; natural leg masage, natural jacuzzi; learn dancing, tickle making, cooking local dishes; enjoy ethnic arts (then singing, Mong flute, stall dancing, Dao dance) or soak in herbal feet, ride a bicycle, experience the "people's kitchen",... The right time for tourists to visit and experience this waterfall is from April to the end of September. The ticket price is 70,000 VND/person. The ideal schedule is 2 days 1 night or 3 days 2 nights with costs ranging from 850,000 VND/person or more, including accommodation costs of about 400,000 VND/person/night and food service from 150,000 VND/person/meal. Here, visitors can choose to stay in a community stilt house or Mongolian tent with full facilities and enjoy many delicious dishes and local specialties such as vegetable salad, stream fish, pig/chicken, sticky rice/five-color thick cake, Tay chung cake,... From Chiem Hoa, visitors move along a small road that turns into a waterfall about 25km long. The road is convenient and clean, with many stilt houses located along both sides of the road.  If you have the opportunity to come here, in addition to Ban Ba waterfall, visitors can visit a number of other attractive tourist attractions in Chiem Hoa district such as: Lua Waterfall (Hoa Phu commune); Kim Binh Special National Monument; Bao Ninh Sung Phuc Pagoda; Dam Hong temple; Bach Than temple...  Source: VNN Photo: The Ban Ba Jungle Lodge
