In K’ho language, B’bla means elephant ivory. It is related to the dark period in history, when minorities were forced by the rulers of Champa Kingdom to hunt for ivory and right at this waterfall, elephants used to gather only to be slaughtered. Ivory, therefore, later became the name of the waterfall. B’bla is a magnificent waterfall in the highlands, whose current, 30 meters in width, pours down from a height of over 50 meters. Its thunderous gurgles break up mountainous quietness and the current regains its peaceful flow, winds through every rag and disappears into the jungle, adding more mysterious fascination. B’bla Waterfall scenery spot was built in 1930’s by French people with a down-path carefully paved with stone but unfortunately, due to wartime, it has long been forgotten and deserted. After 1975, difficult economic problems aroused huge rushes of people into LamDong provide for a new life, neighboring forests were cut down irresponsibly and the landscape was spoiled by patches of coffee or tea culture. In 2000, LamDong Labor Union invested much to restore B’bla Waterfall tourist site as an arduous celebration of the 55th anniversary of the August Revolution and 2nd September National Independence Day. The labor union unit of Dalat Service Tourism was in charge of the restoration including a 1-km 250-step down-path which would enable easy access to B’bla Waterfall, which is quite old but mysterious enough to be discovered. |
