![]() Rainbows often form in the mist that comes off of Ban Gioc waterfall. If you take the bus from Cao Bang it will drop you directly at the waterfall so you could see it right away or find a hotel first like we did. The ticket price for Ban Gioc is a modest 40,000 VND ($2) making it well worth the cost compared to some of Vietnam’s more expensive landscapes. View of Ban Gioc/Detian Falls from China used with permission from Darren Peets ![]() The Chinese side is called Detian Falls in case you’re planning you trip through China. You can visit the Ban Gioc Waterfall from either Vietnam or China but can’t cross the border once you are there. Many people say the view is more beautiful from the Chinese side but as you can see it still looks amazing from here. When we arrived we were excited to see the view from some of the viewpoints on the other side of the river but quickly realized that wouldn’t be possible since they are actually in China! The waterfall is actually shared between China and Vietnam with the Quay Son River forming a border between the two countries. It spans more than 300m (1000 ft) and is over 35m (115 ft) high, that’s longer than 3 football fields! It’s the best place to visit in Vietnam’s Cao Bang province and I hope after reading this article and seeing the photos Ban Gioc makes it to the top of your to do list in Vietnam.
