that along your trail you could view down there, the beautiful large white rocks scattered along the river..
LIKEWISE, taking a bath is prohibited here but a lot of people tend to as the falls was so inviting, and so far nothing has been reported to have had a negative effects of doing so..
THINGS YOU NEED
beware of the three deep uncovered holes inside (these holes are the measuring guide if the water in this dam is going up)
Another trail to see the LEGENDARY MOUNTAINS...
You can opt to stay and rent a picnic shed on this side or ask a local to also rent a floating "balsa" to make a tour around the river and took photos near the Legendary Mountains..
The most fun and funny part is that down there, you can find a for rent VIDEOKE (a big wow and a round of applause, electricity is available down a rocky mountain..:))

This a mere perfect adventure for trail seekers with at least a very low budget, and in fact not necessarily to bring large amount all you've got to bring is your transportation fee from and to going here and at least a penny for a thirst quencher..aside from this very historical place, adventure and fun with friends is definitely a high five!!
