Khuoi Nhi waterfall has two stories. From Na Hang lake, you need to climb about 100m to reach its first story where has a cool clear lake for tourists to freely swim.
The second story, said to be more majestic than the first, serves as a perfect place to take check-in photos. Hai recommends visitors to the waterfall in the rainy season because it is full of water and boasts beautiful moss-covered rocks.

The boat docks outside the Phia Vai cave, around 20 minutes away from Khuoi Nhi waterfall. In the Phia Vai cave, archaeologists have discovered two burial relics and a fire stove from the Stone Age over 10,000 years ago. According to Hai, because it’s the rainy season, it’s hard for the boat to go inside the cave. Therefore, he decided to swim about 15-20 m to explore.
Coming to Phia Vai cave, visitors will definitely be blown away by its untouched beauty with the highlight of large blocks of stalactites.

One of the not-to-be-missed destinations on Na Hang lake is Coc Vai islet, which means “stake to tie buffaloes” in the Tay ethnic language. The islet has existed for thousands of years amid the tranquil lake.
