Thac Mo Waterfall

Thac Mo Waterfall is a natural waterfall and lake area located in Phuoc Long, Dong Nai Province (formerly Binh Phuoc Province), near Dong Xoai city. It is formed on the Be River and is now part of the Thac Mo Lake and Thac Mo Hydropower Reservoir. The site is notable for its forested landscape, reservoir scenery, and association with one of southern Vietnam's early hydropower projects.

Visitors can expect a broad reservoir lake with forested banks, the dam structure of Thac Mo Hydropower Plant, and small cascade areas downstream. The surroundings are characterized by secondary forest, lake viewpoints, and boat landing areas. Visitors can explore lakeside paths, viewpoints over the reservoir, and nearby forested areas. The setting is primarily natural and rural with limited built tourist infrastructure.

Thac Mo Waterfall is closely associated with Thac Mo Hydropower Plant, constructed between 1991 and 1995 on the Be River. The dam created Thac Mo Lake, transforming the original waterfall into a reservoir landscape and providing hydroelectric power for southern Vietnam.

The area is within the traditional living area of the S'tieng ethnic group and is part of the local cultural landscape of Phuoc Long. The lake and surrounding forests are used by local communities for fishing and livelihood.
