10 kilometers from Sapa there is a silver waterfall-Thak Bak (Thas Vas). The height of the waterfall is 100 meters, and it is the largest and most famous in the vicinity of the town. Unfortunately, in the dry season, the fame and popularity of the waterfall far outstrips its beauty, since at this time it does not represent anything special. But in the rainy season, its appearance is worth such a long trip. About a kilometer further right by the road is a small waterfall Thak Dien.
Infrastructure is organized near the waterfall: there is a small market and there is something to eat, paid parking. The ascent to the top of the waterfall is carried out on convenient stairs, in some places along the way there are gazebos for rest. A bridge has also been built over the waterfall, offering perhaps the best view for photography.
Interestingly, most of the photos of this waterfall on the Internet are not at all true, and it is not quite as beautiful and large as shown in advertising booklets.

💵Entrance fee / ticket price

🚶 How to get there
The waterfall is located about 10 kilometers north of Sapa (Thak bak on the map) right by the road on the way to the Tram Ton Pass. You can get here with an excursion or by rented transport. The waterfall is included in the program of excursions to Fansipan and to Heaven's Gate. When approaching it on a motorcycle, you will be intercepted right on the road, inviting you to a paid parking lot near the market. It is not necessary to agree and pay 10,000 VND. You can drive another 50 meters to the entrance to the waterfall and leave the motorcycle right on the side of the road, it will be perfectly visible from the waterfall.
