(HBO) - Pure and refreshing air, tranquil space and beautiful pristine landscapes can be found at the Trang waterfall in Trang Ta hamlet of Nhan My commune (Tan Lac district), which is hailed as one of the most fascinating waterfalls in Hoa Binh province.
Trang waterfall in Nhan My commune (Tan Lac) during the rainy season.
The five-step waterfall has different characteristics. Its flow looks like a long and beautiful strand of hair.
The plunge pool at the end of the waterfall is similar to a natural swimming pool whose water level measures only over 1m in depth so visitors can swim there, making it among the safest places for swimming.
Three sections of the waterfall bear distinctive traits. The first one from the crest makes people think of a proactive young man while the second section is like a shy girl hiding herself under the bushes, and the third one of the waterfall is a wonderful place.
The view from the top is the most beautiful, but only a few people can reach it. The waterfall is 5m high and flows vertically, creating a base measuring 2m in depth.
The water is clean yet rather freezing. Therefore, even in scorching weather and the temperature may be higher than 40 degrees Celsius, visitors may only swim for dozens of minutes then go sunbathing.
With picturesque landscape, pure air and cool and clean water, coupled with a favourable location, the waterfall was recognised as a tourist destination at provincial level in December 2019.
Local authorities and people hoped that investment will help turn the site into a popular destination and become a draw in tourists’ trips to the ancient land of Muong Bi./.
Hoa Binh province’s rich natural and cultural resources position it as a prime location for developing community-based tourism (CBT). In recent years, support from central and provincial policies, as well as assistance from non-governmental organisations, have encouraged local ethnic minority and mountainous communities to actively engage in the sector.
Van Son Commune, Tan Lạc district, Hoa Binh province also known as "Cloud Valley," boasts a cool climate, stunning natural landscapes, and majestic scenery. Visitors who have been to this place should make a stop at Chien Hamlet to experience a lot of fascinating things and feel the friendly, warmth of the Muong ethnic people.
Thanks to the effective exploitation of natural landscape and the cultural diversity of ethnic minorities, Hoa Binh province has become an attractive destination for tourists seeking experiences and exploration.
The Department of Cultural Heritage has just coordinated with the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism of Hoa Binh province to organize a training on implementing the model of the cultural heritage connected in the cultural tourism journey in Cao Phong and Lac Son districts.
The Sung village in Cao Son commune, Da Bac district, is endowed with pristine natural landscape, and Dao Tien ethnic minority community in the village preserves rich cultural heritage, including traditional housing, clothing, language, scripts, customs, and daily life practices. Since the community-based tourism model was introduced in the locality, these traditional cultural values have been further preserved and promoted.
