The members of staff who are in charge of greeting guests seemed to be very knowledgeable, friendly and are very proud of the waterfalls. One has to cross a bridge to access the falls. It seems to be fairly sturdy. The waterfall that one first sees is lovely and the water is shallow. There is a second waterfall. One must climb a very, very steep set of steps to access them as well as climb some rocks. The rocks can be VERY slippery. Thus, if you do not feel 100% confident, do not take the chance. Do it slowly The second waterfall is absolutely stunning and I saw some people go under it and it seemed to be refreshing. The water is shallow around the waterfall. In relation to kids, the first waterfall is pretty amazing and children should not have too much trouble walking to it. As for the second one - be cautious. The scenery is absolutely wonderful, so take the time to see all of the pretty plants and flowers. There is a kiosk to purchase...

Read moreEpic. Must visit location. There are 2 waterfalls here and both are wonderful. It's a short walk to get to them however there's a lil excitement attached. Firstly you have to cross a bamboo bridge. Now it's not high up but some people may still be a bit nervous to get on. After crossing the bridge there is a short walk to the first waterfall. Very easy. You then can continue walking until to reach the flight of concrete steps. I didn't count how much steps, but it's enough to make you wonder if the climb is worth it. After reaching the end of the stairs you walk down and cross the river . Very shallow path until you have to climb up some rocks that will take you straight to the 2nd waterfall. On arrival you will realize that it was worth the walk. I would strongly advise that you visit these falls and enjoy what nature has...
