Detian-Banyue Falls, China - Vietnam

On the border between China and Vietnam is the picturesque Detian-Banyue Falls, which is long considered a landmark of world importance. The height of the waterfall is 30 meters. It consists of three cascades which are divided into many separate streams by trees and stones. The waterfall looks simply incredible, and the thunder produced by it can be heard at a considerable distance. All the power of the Detian-Banyue waterfall can be estimated during the flood period. And when it is completed, the waterfalls located in different states are divided into two.

The unusual waterfall has its own secret. A small road, which leads to a stone, passes over it. On this stone the border between Vietnam and China was designated. According to one of the assumptions, the stone in this place was established in 1979. Many tourists are mainly interested in the lower part of the waterfall, where viewing platforms and beautiful recreation areas were equipped. Here are several small hotels, cozy restaurants and cafes, as well as souvenir shops.

Those, who like unusual entertainments, will be offered to ride along the pools of the waterfall on a bamboo raft. The best time to visit the natural sight is a period from November to April. Not far from the waterfall is an important natural sight - Tongling gorge, in which you can see a lot of rare plant species. Fans of hiking will have an opportunity to visit the amazing Forest of Water Stones and look into ancient karst caves. Next - Erawan Waterfall
