Nestled along the Vietnam-China border, Ban Gioc Waterfall in Trung Khanh District, Cao Bang Province, is renowned as one of Vietnam’s most breathtaking natural wonders. It is also the fourth largest transnational waterfall in the world. Cascading from a height of over 60 meters, the falls create a mesmerizing spectacle with a steepest drop of 30 meters.

However, spring also offers a unique charm, with cool, refreshing weather enhancing the experience. Visitors arriving around 11 a.m. can witness the waterfall in its full glory when the hydroelectric power plant releases water, intensifying the cascade’s flow.
