Quy Nhon has been emerging as one of those hot destinations in Central Vietnam. Coming to this coastal city, most tourists will find themselves admiring at both marvelous natural and historic man-made sights.

The Queen Beach (The Egg Beach)

Have you ever seen a flat and smooth natural egg-shaped stone? While such a special stone is often scarcely seen, you will find many of these on the Queen Beach. They come with different colors, making the whole beach look like a beautiful playground. Here are some snapshots of these. The Queen Beach took its name after a visit from the then Queen of Vietnam (Nam Phuong Queen).

The beach is located inside Han Mac Tu Memorial Park. Han Mac Tu is a famous poet in Vietnam in the 30s. He died from leprosy at the age of 28 and was buried inside this park.

Phuong Mai Mini Deserts

In Phuong Mai Peninsula which is nearby Quy Nhon's city center, there’s an area in where you can see many sand hills on both sides of the road. Brought together by the sea wind, these hills form spectacular mini deserts where local people and tourists sometimes come over for fun activities such as downhill sliding.

Eo Gio (The Windy Pass)

Eo Gio is a well-loved attraction in Quy Nhon. It only takes visitors around 30 minutes to ride from the city center to Eo Gio by motorbike as the roads are spacious and deserted.

Eo Gio is a well-arranged natural structure of rocks, hills and sea. You can climb up one of the hill tops to behold this awe-inspiring landscape. Be careful though as winds here are very strong, which forms the basis for the attraction’s name Windy Pass.

You can also go downhill to be closer to the sea. There is no beach here, only stones that form a border between the sea and the land. However, being at the foot of the hill brought visitors a refreshing chill from the sea air.

Fisherman Village

After exploring Eo Gio, you can also visit a local fisherman village nearby. Don’t be surprised to find only women and children here, as the fishermen often sail away rather than stay home. It’ll be nice if you have a translator who can help you start some interesting conversations with these locals. 

Ky Co Island 

Ky Co Island is a beautiful deserted island close to Eo Gio. Some local tour companies organize daily trips to Ky Co island. However, the weather is not always safe to go there so you’d better call to check with the tour companies first. Often the best time to go to Ky Co Island is from April to September.

Thap Doi – Champa Double Tower

Built from the 10th to 15th centuries, these towers belong to the old Champa Kingdom with the height of around 20 meters. Decorations from the towers took inspirations from old tales in Hinduism. If you have been to Angkor Wat in Cambodia, you might feel a sense of Siem Riep here when visiting these two towers in Quy Nhon.
