Introduction

Quy Nhon, a picturesque peninsula city cradled by the Thi Nai deepwater lagoon and outlying islands, offers a captivating blend of natural beauty, cultural heritage, and historical intrigue. Recently gaining fame for hosting the Formula 1 motorboat race, this charming destination is rich in history and tradition.


Quy Nhon is best known for its ancient Cham architecture, including the Binh Lam Towers, Banh It Towers, and the Duong Long Cham Temple. These centuries-old red-brick towers, perched on hillsides and riverbanks, are remnants of the Champa civilization. The structures, weathered by time and overgrown with greenery, provide stunning views of surrounding mountains and rivers, blending history with the natural landscape.


The Cham people, who inhabited the central coast of Vietnam from the fifth to the early nineteenth century, were skilled seafarers and traders. The region’s geography, characterized by rivers divided by mountains, contributed to the Cham’s fragmented political structure. Rather than a unified kingdom, they developed a series of autonomous polities that rose and fell with the fortunes of their rulers.


Quy Nhon offers visitors a chance to step back in time, exploring the region’s rich cultural tapestry while enjoying its serene coastal charm and breathtaking scenery.
