Ban Gioc waterfall is invaluable gift granted to Cao Bang by the nature. It is regarded as the most beautiful waterfall of Vietnam. It is situated in Dam Thuy Commune, Trung Khanh District, 89 kilometers north of Cao Bang Town along Provincial Road 206 and 26 kilometers from the Chinese town of Trung Khanh). The waterfall originates from Quay Son River (China) and downstream flows back to China. On the Viet Nam side, the river has a picturesque scenery, fresh environment with grass cover, evergreen forest, bobbing white clouds mingling with the peaceful atmosphere of villages of mountainous ethnic minorities. On the other side is the neighboring nation of China.
 
With a height of 53 meters and a width of 300 meters, the waterfall is divided into 3 layers consisting of 12px and 15px upper flows. 15px water blocks fall into limestone steps, making a curtain of white sprays. Far from the waterfall, visitors can hear the roaring of waterfall resounding through a 15px area. Rising from middle of the waterfall is a 15px water mound covered with trees, splitting the river into three white silk strips. On hot summer days, it is still cool here. Every early morning, the sun shines through steam creating a sparkling rainbow.

With the splendid natural beauty, the waterfall of Ban Gioc is becoming Cao Bang’s biggest tourist attraction.
