When you see Ban Gioc Waterfall, the first thing that comes to your mind is „wow“.
Located in both Vietnam and China, this is one of the biggest cross-border waterfalls in the world! Water crashes down more than 70 meters over 3 levels and stretches over 300 meters wide. Better add Ban Gioc Waterfall to your Vietnam Waterfall bucket list, so you won’t drown in regret!

How to get there:
→ by rental motorcycle

Elephant Waterfalls – The waterfall for explorers!
Whoever told you to stop chasing waterfalls was terribly wrong (sorry TLC)! Because when in Vietnam, you will not want to go with the flow, but properly chase the mesmerising waterfalls. The Elephant Waterfalls, for instance, allow you to get up close and enjoy the best view possible!
Here you will definitely get the chance to get into uncharted waters!
Entrance Fee: 20,000 VND (≈ 1 USD)
How to get there:

Pongour Waterfall – The romantic waterfall!
Not as well known as the Elephant Waterfall, Pongour has the edge when it comes to ambience and untamed beauty! If you have your own transportation, you can easily visit both in one day. The multi-layered falls allow visitors to get under and behind them, perfect for cooling down.
No wonder why many said that the waterfall is considered one of the most romantic settings in the world. It is definitely good to the last drop!
Entrance Fee:10,000 VND (0.50 USD)
How to get there:

To commemorate their love, the falls were named Chang (He) and Nang (She).
