About the destination: Quy Nhon, located on Vietnam’s south-central coast, is an under-visited city bordered by beautiful beaches and dramatic countryside. Capital of Binh Dinh Province, it was recognized as a city in 1898 but its history stretches back to the 11th century, during the Champa Kingdom. In the 15th century it served as a ruling center for Emperor Le Thanh Ton, and later became both a fierce battleground and a key US military and naval base during the Vietnam War. Today, Quy Nhon is a growing port city of over 260,000 residents, investing in new infrastructure to welcome more visitors. Fishing remains its main industry, so the city is an excellent destination for fresh, high-quality seafood. Among its attractions, the Binh Dinh Museum stands out, with three main galleries: one dedicated to the local Communist Party’s struggle during the Vietnam War, a central gallery focusing on the French colonial period, and another showcasing Cham sculptures. The Thap Doi Cham Towers are another highlight: unlike most Cham towers, which come in odd-numbered groups and sit on hilltops, this complex consists of just two towers located right in town. Their detailed reliefs are still in impressive condition. Long Khanh Pagoda, the city’s main pagoda built in the 18th century, is notable for its 17-meter-high Buddha statue. Nearby, visitors can explore the scenic Queen’s Beach—named for the wife of Vietnam’s last emperor—and the Quy Hoa Leper Colony, a tranquil area with a hospital, gardens, and the homes of former patients. Swimming is one of the best activities in Quy Nhon thanks to its beautiful coastline. Queen’s Beach and Quy Hoa Beach are popular with both locals and expatriates. For a more upscale stay, visitors can choose between HAGL Resort Quy Nhon—an exclusive property with a huge pool, spa, fitness center, and tennis courts—and Life Resort, considered the most luxurious resort in Binh Dinh. Set on a private beach, Life Resort offers not only swimming but also boating, snorkeling, spa treatments, and t’ai chi, making Quy Nhon an appealing mix of history, culture, and seaside relaxation.
