++ D’raysap Waterfall

Location: In Nam Da Commune, Krong No District, Dak Nong Province, 30km from Buon Ma Thuot City.
Characteristics: D’raysap is the name in the E De language which means the Misty Waterfall.

This name is derived from a legend of love story between a boy and a girl who lived in this area. Everyday, H’Mi - name of the girl - used to go to the milpa with her lover. One day, while resting on a flat stone, they saw a monster, whose head was as big as a mountain, eyes like bronze urns. Its body was glittery with silvery scales. Suddenly, the monster dived down from the sky and his trunk plunged into the ground, stirring up a colossal column of water. The monster spread out its large wings, flew around several times, making a fierce rain then flied away. In terrible shock, the girl disappeared into the mist. The boy was transformed into a big stump, whose roots stuck into the rock. This place was then called the Dray Sap, or Misty Waterfall.

The rains impetuously rumble down and all of a sudden stop. The sunshine filtered through foliages, making the waterfall look more miraculous. This stream looks like a mixture of water and clouds. Tourists will feel at ease here.
