September and October are the most beautiful months at Ban Gioc Waterfall.

Many outdoor enthusiasts assert that Ban Gioc Waterfall is at its most majestic and beautiful during the rice harvest season, around September and October. At this time, the scenery and waters of Trung Khanh are peaceful and pristine, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the cool, refreshing water.

Ban Gioc Waterfall is located in Dam Thuy commune, Trung Khanh district (Cao Bang province), on the border between Vietnam and China. For a long time, the waterfall has been famous as one of the most beautiful natural waterfalls in Vietnam, and is ranked among the top 10 most magnificent waterfalls in the world .

Each season at Ban Gioc Waterfall has its own unique beauty; no two seasons are alike. When visiting this most famous landmark in Cao Bang province, many tourist groups often buy tickets to take a boat tour around the base of the waterfall.

Many mobile stalls wander around, soliciting tourists. They mainly sell drinks and snacks to boat travelers . Every year, in early October, the people of Cao Bang usually organize the Ban Gioc Waterfall Festival. If you have the opportunity to visit during this time, in addition to admiring the waterfall, you will also have the chance to immerse yourself in a very unique festival atmosphere.

Among the activities are the water procession ceremony praying for national peace and prosperity, cultural and artistic performances, folk sports , folk games such as stick pushing, grass pulling, blindfolded duck catching, throwing the ball, raft rowing on the Quây Sơn River, and visiting stalls displaying unique products of the province and Trùng Khánh district.

Ban Gioc Waterfall is located nearly 90km from Cao Bang city, with a height of 53m, divided into 3 tiers and 2 streams, of which the main waterfall, widest and highest, is located in the border area between Vietnam and China.

Here, large volumes of water cascade down, creating a white foam, surrounded by beautiful moss-covered limestone steps. Boats carrying tourists can easily approach the base of the waterfall. In many sections, visitors can wade in and enjoy a refreshing swim in the cool, flowing water of the stream.

The smaller waterfall nearby has a fairly large flow of water around October, creating a majestic beauty no less impressive than the main waterfall.

Several ancillary services such as horseback riding, photography, and traditional costume rentals have appeared here to meet all the needs of tourists.
