However, to reach the waterfall, one still has to go over several short slopes with rough, rocky paths. Photo: Huy ThuIn return, the clear, cool stream makes everyone who visits reluctant to leave. Locals usually come to the waterfall between 11 and 12 pm and leave at 2 pm. Those from further away, however, will swim longer and leave later, sometimes not leaving until the sun is setting.
