Air with oxygen at Yang Bay
Yang Bay Tourist Area in Y Bay Tribe, Khanh Vinh
District, Khanh Hoa Province, is suggested as an ideal site for tourists to
celebrate the Tet holiday and discover this area that is endowed with
magnificent waterfalls, blue lakes and splendid scenery.
To reach the site from Nha Trang City, tourists must pass through Dien Khanh Old
Town and 40 kilometers more through deserted villages. The way to Yang Bay is
rather complicated, so tourists should stop frequently to ask locals the right
way if traveling independently.
Yang Bay Tourist Area is located on an area of 570 hectares of primeval forest
and three waterfalls, namely Yang Bay, Yang Khang and Ho Cho. Yang Bay in the
local ethnic language is Raglay, which means Heaven Waterfall. Entrance tickets
are VND30,000 per adult and VND30,000 per two children. English speaking tour
guides cost VND100,000 per hour and Vietnamese language conducted tours are
VND50,000 per hour.
The 800 meter path to the center of the site is shaded by seasoned trees and is
lovely with its flowers and creepers. However, anyone too lazy to walk the 800
meters can catch the electric bus for VND10,000.
On the stone steps of the gentle slope, tourists can start the journey to Yang
Bay Waterfall with fresh air in the lungs and the relaxing feeling of cool water
under the feet. The silence of the site is broken by the roaring of the
waterfall spilling onto the giant rocks below. The stream from a height of
hundreds of meters looks like a silver carpet under the glistening rays of the
sun.
The waterfall sustains several small lakes below, of which the deepest is 16
meters.
The nearby Yang Khang Waterfall offers swimming or bathing in clear water.
Bathing suits and buoys are available for rent, VND60,000 to VND70,000 for swim
suits and VND5,000 for buoys.
After working up a hunger from the hiking and swimming, tourists can stop at
Yang Khang Restaurant or Yang Bay Restaurant which was built in the traditional
architecture of the highlands. While enjoying some food, locals will perform on
ethnic musical instruments.
In the distance is a colorful orchid garden with many kinds of orchids brought
from southern provinces. Tourists can also hire a horse-drawn carriage to enjoy
the flower garden as well as the site.
Less than a thousand meters away is the pristine Ho Cho Waterfall with its
wonderful surrounding landscapes.
An overnight stay ensures tourists a chance to enjoy a stone musical instrument
performance and an old fashioned campfire in the great outdoors.
