Ba Ho Waterfalls
Near Ba Ho village lies a series of three waterfalls and a river with swift currents, tucked away in the forest.

Po Nagar Towers
The Po Nagar towers complex is a good illustration of Cham architecture and art at its best. The towers stand along the banks of Cai River and were built between the 7^th and the 12^th centuries; the most beautiful towers were created between 813 and 817. Unfortunately, the majority of the towers were destroyed and only four of them are still standing. Each tower is a temple dedicated to a different deity. They are still actively used for worship by Cham, ethnic Chinese and Vietnamese Buddhists.
