2. An intriguing legend about Trinh Nu Waterfall
Visitors not only get to admire breathtaking landscapes here but also have the opportunity to hear fascinating folk tales and legends about the waterfall's name.
According to local oral tradition, in this region, there was a beautiful young E De girl who, upon reaching marriageable age, was forced by her parents to marry a wealthy village chief. Refusing to accept her fate, she determinedly resisted but was unsuccessful. Frustrated, she threw herself into the Krông Nô River, fulfilling her vow to her beloved.
Her departure seems to stir the river's heart, where the water rushes fiercely, foaming and crashing against the rocks, creating sounds resembling the cries of lamentation from her. Hence, the villagers named this waterfall “Trinh Nu” (Virgin).
