At the foot of the waterfall there are many large rocks with unique shapes, chosen by tourists as a place to stop and rest, organize picnics and enjoy the natural scenery.

About 1.5km downstream from Ta Puong 1 waterfall is Ta Puong 2 waterfall. At the foot of the waterfall is a lake about 5,000m2 wide, with clear blue water, you can see the bottom. This is also an area loved by many tourists, who come to swim, play, paddle SUP...
