August and September are said to be the best time to visit Cao Bang, a northern province bordering China. During this period, Ban Gioc Waterfall, which is a natural borderline separating Vietnam and China, fully exposes its beauty. The waterfall is one of the 10 most spectacular cascading scenes in the world, according to Touropia in 2015. Moreover, tourists will be enchanted by the peaceful views of sunset in the smoky air from local kitchens and the yellow rice fields.

Phuc Sen Village is located 30km from Cao Bang City, Cao Bang Province. The village is filled with the sounds of workers beating and hammering steel as they forge knives using traditional techniques and recycled materials.
Currently, 160 workshops are in operation, offering stable jobs for over 300 local labourers.
What makes Phuc Sen knives special is the manual forging process. However, some steps done manually previously are now assisted with machineries. (Photo: Minh Quyet/VNA)
