Our next stop is the gorgeous Kuang Si waterfalls. The drive there itself is scenic, with green rice fields and quaint little villages that come your way. You can stop for a while at some of them before continuing ahead. Take a dip in the refreshing waters of Kuang Si. Drop by the Tat Kuang Si Bear Rescue Centre at the base of the falls, to help out and watch cuddly bears lazing around in the sanctuary.
