Known as one of the famous tourist destinations in Lai Chau, Tac Tinh waterfall always attracts many tourists from all over the country to come and admire. Let's explore this legendary waterfall with us. Tac Tinh Waterfall is also known as Tac Tinh Waterfall, people here still call it Tinh Waterfall for short. The waterfall is located in Binh Lu commune, about 27km from Lai Chau city center. Located in the middle of rolling mountains, the waterfall is like a beautiful young woman hiding behind the hands of majestic nature. From a distance, the waterfall appears like the hair of a beautiful, soft and gentle girl. These names are not simply to distinguish places, but also contain a sad story about the unfinished love of a Dao couple. In terms of scenery, Tac Tinh waterfall is no less beautiful than famous waterfalls such as Hang De Cho in Yen Bai, Phi Lieng waterfall in Lam Dong or Do Quyen waterfall in Thua Thien Hue. The waterfall is located at an altitude of about 1,400 meters above sea level. In the summer, the waterfall falls strongly from a height of more than 120 meters, creating a majestic, white column of water. The water from the waterfall then winds through the stone steps, creating many small, fresh and gentle streams. On days when the water is dry, the upper lake bed is quite large and can be bathed if you want to experience the feeling of immersing yourself in pristine nature. The legend of Tac Tinh waterfall is a sad love story that has been passed down through many generations in the Dao community in Si Thau Chai village. The story is about Lo Lan - a beautiful young woman, the daughter of a rich family, with a sweet voice that captivated the whole mountain and forest. Even though she was approached by many wealthy families, she still firmly refused. Her heart was devoted to the poor boy Ly Phan, who had the talent to play the flute and make the music fly far into the deep forest. The two of them were inseparable, singing together every day. The sound of the flute and singing blended together as if it could summon the soul of the mountains and forests. However, that love encountered prohibition. Ly Phan was forced to leave the village, leaving Lo Lan alone to wait. Each season of ban flowers passes, she still stands at the top of the mountain, looking forward to the silhouette of her past. But after waiting forever, Lo Lan gradually disappeared. The villagers said that she turned into stone, and the water pouring from above turned into her hair and tears, flowing endlessly. Later, Ly Phan returned and found the old waterfall. He stood next to the waterfall, playing the familiar flute again, like a passionate call to the girl he once loved. But I waited and waited but no one was seen. Gradually, the villagers no longer saw the boy's silhouette. Only the distant sound of the flute lingers amidst the sound of the waterfall. Since then, Tac Tinh waterfall has been mentioned as a symbol of faithful, unwavering love - a place where sincere feelings are never divided, whether by time or fate. To fully experience Tac Tinh waterfall, you should choose a suitable time for the purpose of your trip.
