Thac Bac Waterfall, also known as Silver Falls, sits 30 minutes from Sapa. See the waterfall in all its glory after a 10-minute walk up the steps and across a bridge. Here witness the 656-foot-tall waterfall as it trails down the mountainside and through loose rocks. © Thaiwanderer | Dreamstime.com
The highest mountain in the Indochinese Peninsula, Fansipan Mountain reaches more than 10,000 feet into the sky.
