The name Thung Nai makes many people think of a valley with deer roaming around. According to local people, this place was once home to many species of wild deer. The poetic image of golden deer bewildered in the afternoon sunlight on the slopes, reflecting on the Da River, was used by people to name this land.
Nowadays, coming to Thung Nai, although there are no longer wild deer, the poetic and romantic beauty of the mountains and rivers here seems to still be intact. To explore this "golden deer valley", you can only use a boat or walk. Leave the car on the shore, the motorboat will take tourists for a tour on the hydroelectric lake.
In the strong wind blowing from the lake, the picturesque scene of Thung Nai appears before your eyes. A large lake surrounded by rolling mountains. In the lake, hundreds of large and small "islands" undulate like magnificent natural masterpieces. Floating on the water, the motorboat weaves through the rocky outcroppings, creating the feeling of enjoying "Ha Long on land".
A perfect combination of rivers, lakes and mountain rocks, Thac Bo cave is a destination not to be missed when coming to Thung Nai. The cave is located deep inside the mountain and is quite wild, but the scenery inside is beautiful. The whole forest of stalactites grows up and down, with strange shapes. After the high water season, visitors entering the cave can enjoy schools of fish swimming freely in the shallow, clear water.
Right near the cave is Ba Chua Thac Bo temple. Although the temple is quite small and located on a steep mountain slope, this place attracts many tourists from all over to worship. For many people, stopping at the temple is an opportunity to enjoy the beauty of Thung Nai from a high perspective with floating white clouds and glimpses of ethnic villages.
An interesting thing here is that when the Da River water dries up, visitors to the temple have to climb up steep stone steps, sometimes stumbling. But during the high water season, the steps flood, visitors to the temple just need to step down from the boat. If you go on Sunday, don't forget to visit Thac Bo floating market. Not too noisy and crowded, but a very typical cultural feature of the Muong people in Thung Nai.

As the boat slowly moves through the water, the windmill stands tall on the small island, attracting the attention of anyone passing by. This is like the invitation of a vacation home in the middle of the lake. Therefore, whether they come back during the day or stay overnight, most tourists coming to Thung Nai want to stop by this small island to see with their own eyes the seemingly unique windmill. in the Netherlands, or in the famous novel "Don Kihote - the talented nobleman of Manta".
Not only is it unique, the windmill here also has a beautiful viewing spot. From here, you can zoom out into the distance, taking in the entire ink painting of Thung Nai in your sight. If you go up the "mill" early in the morning, you will see Thung Nai engulfed in mist, while when the sun rises, the clear blue lake surface sparkles yellow.
In addition to the pristine natural landscape, the specialty parties of the Muong people have become a highlight in Thung Nai. It was a meal with stream fish, hill chicken and exotic wild vegetables.
