Detian Waterfall, the largest national waterfall in Asia

Along with the enhancement of friendly ties between China and Vietnam, the Detian Scenic Zone was established several years ago, and was so named for its spectacular Detian Waterfall.

The Detian Waterfall is over 200 meters wide and has a drop of more than 70 meters. Its water rushes down a three-tiered cliff with tremendous force. It is the largest one in Southeast Asia, and the fourth largest transnational waterfall in the world, connecting with a waterfall in Vietnam. Chinese people and Vietnam people trade around the lower reaches of the waterfall from ancient times.
