Detian Transnational Waterfall: A Must-See

Hey guys, I just got back from Detian Transnational Waterfall and had such a great time that I can't wait to share my experience with you. Where is Detian Waterfall? What's so special about it? Detian Transnational Waterfall is located in Daxin County, Chongzuo, Guangxi Province, and spans the border between China and Vietnam. It is the largest transnational waterfall in Asia and the fourth largest in the world. Standing in front of the waterfall, you will be amazed by the grandeur of nature, the deafening sound of the water, and the mist that hits your face. The surrounding area is a typical karst landscape, with strange peaks and green water, as if you have entered a fairyland. How to get to Detian Waterfall? I started from Nanning, and there are many transportation options. If you are traveling with friends, it is convenient to rent a car if there are many people. You can enjoy the scenery along the way and stop to take photos whenever you see a beautiful place. If you want to save money, you can take a bus to Chongzuo and then transfer to the scenic area. However, you need to check the bus schedule and time in advance, otherwise, waiting for the bus can be very tiring. How to plan the itinerary? 🎫 After entering the scenic area, don't rush in. You can go to the visitor center to get a map🗺️, so you can have a better sense of direction when playing. First stop, take the sightseeing bus to the waterfall viewing platform, which is the best place to see the whole waterfall, with a great view. Standing on the viewing platform, you can see the whole waterfall and the border between China and Vietnam in the distance. On one side is the lush green mountains of China, and on the other side is the quiet village of Vietnam. The two landscapes complement each other, and the picture is beautiful. Then walk slowly down the boardwalk, and you can see the beauty of the waterfall from different angles along the way. There are also many small signs on both sides of the boardwalk introducing Detian Waterfall and the local customs, so you can learn something while playing. When you reach the foot of the waterfall, you must take a bamboo raft🚤! You can feel the grandeur of the waterfall up close, and the splashing water is super cool and exciting. However, be careful when taking the bamboo raft, as you may get wet, so it is best to prepare a waterproof bag in advance to protect your phone and camera. After visiting the waterfall, you can also go to the nearby China-Vietnam border market, where there are many Vietnamese specialty products, such as Vietnamese coffee, perfume, cashew nuts, etc. The prices are also relatively affordable, and you can buy some as souvenirs🎁. Are there any hidden activities? Of course! There is a hidden hiking trail🚶‍♀️ near Detian Waterfall that not many people know about. Walking along this trail, you can see different scenery and get close to the local rural scenery. Along the way, you can see green mountains and rivers, and occasionally you can see farmers working in the fields, which is very lively. There is also a place called Guichun River, which is the border river between China and Vietnam. Walking along the river, enjoying the beautiful scenery on both sides, and feeling the breeze on your face, it is very pleasant. Occasionally, you can see small Vietnamese bamboo rafts passing by on the river, which is full of exotic flavor. What are the local delicacies? When you go to Detian Waterfall, you must try the local food😋. You must try the rice rolls, which are thin rice skins wrapped with a lot of fillings, such as minced meat, fungus, and shredded carrots, and then poured with a spoonful of delicious soup. It is soft, glutinous, and fragrant, very satisfying! You can't miss the sour food either. Various fresh fruits are marinated in special plum juice, which is sour and sweet, with a rich taste, and very appetizing. Mango, pineapple, and guava are all delicious when made into sour food. There are also Vietnamese spring rolls, with transparent skins wrapped with vegetables and shrimp, dipped in special sauce, refreshing and delicious, full of Southeast Asian flavor. Where is the best place to stay? If you want to see the beautiful sunrise🌅 over the waterfall in the morning, you can choose to stay in a hotel in the scenic area, which is in a great location and has a great view. However, the price is relatively high, but it is worth it for the beautiful scenery. If you are on a budget, the homestays outside the scenic area are also a good choice. Many homestays have a good environment, and the owners are very enthusiastic and will recommend local food and fun places to you. In the evening, you can chat with other tourists in the courtyard of the homestay, share interesting stories about your trip, and enjoy the tranquility of the night, which is very comfortable. Guys, Detian Transnational Waterfall is really fun, whether it is the natural scenery or the food, it is unforgettable. Hurry up and plan your trip to experience its charm💖!
