A 23‑year‑old tourist fell about 300 meters down a cliff at Lung Cu, Tuyen Quang Province, while taking photos. The accident shows why we must follow safety signs at tourist sites.

Tran Duc Chung of the commune’s administration told Tuoi Tre that the tourist climbed onto a concrete railing to take photos and then lost his footing. He rolled down the mountainside, and vegetation helped cushion his fall. He only suffered minor scratches and neck pain.

Local police, border guards, medical staff and residents quickly coordinated a rescue and brought the tourist to safety. After first aid, he was taken to a medical facility for further checks. Authorities urged visitors to obey safety signs, avoid walking or taking photos near cliffs, steep slopes and deep ravines, and follow border‑area regulations.

The story reminds us that a simple slip can become dangerous. Always respect safety signs and stay away from risky edges when you take pictures.
