There are more than 100 houses scattering along two sides of the river alternating with white rapids behind, creating a picture of watercolors painting catching your eyes immediately. The village is only one kilometer long but has up to five waterfalls, each of which has its own charming features that are completely different from the others. Therefore, local people give them the general name "Hieu Waterfall", and the stream is also called "Hieu Flow" instead of "Hieu Stream" as usual.
Both the waterfall and the stream are derived from the rocky cave in the limestone mountain range Pu Luong - Cuc Phuong, therefore, the water is especially fresh and blue. The waterfall's length is about 800 meters. From the peak's view, the flow is separated into two smaller ones in the mountain body and then they gather at the end. According to the locals, the stream is never out of water. It is blue all over the year, cool in summer and warm in winter.
