The name “Lung Xanh” in Vietnamese means “emerald green water”. This name is inspired by the stunning, year-round turquoise lake at the base of the waterfall. Visitors can see right through the crystal-clear water to the rocky bottom. The waterfall is divided into three tiers, each offering a distinctive view.
