What makes the Love Waterfall in Sapa special?
With a height reaching nearly 100 meters, day and night, the waterfall diligently pours its water into the picturesque Vàng stream, overcoming rocky obstacles and tumultuous sections to leave only a gentle flow alongside the diverse primeval forest. Along with Cát Cát waterfall and Bạc waterfall, Love Waterfall is considered a Sa Pa tourist attraction that captivates visitors.
Although Love Waterfall is not as grand as Bạc Waterfall, visitors can still enjoy a refreshing dip here as the water reservoir below is safe. Looking down from above, the waterfall and stream appear like a golden silk cloth in the sunlight, water droplets hitting the rocks with a crystal-like sparkle, and silver-scaled fish glimmering as they play in the clear, cool water.
Along the stream is a 1.6km walking trail leading into the primeval forest. Visitors can freely take photos, wade through the stream, or organize entertaining games. All of these activities provide a truly comfortable, relaxing experience, allowing the soul to unwind and immerse in the beauty of the mountain forest, leaving behind the hustle and fatigue of everyday life.
When visiting Sa Pa tourist spots, the Love Waterfall is an excellent choice for travelers. Some places become wonders in every traveler's journey not only because of the beauty of the scenery but also due to the hidden treasures within.
