VietNamNet Bridge – For many, beaches in the coastal resort town of Vung Tau, some 150 kilometers from HCMC, are familiar getaways. Thanks to its location, it is where people, especially from HCMC, can find a place to escape work and noise and unwind on a weekend.

For years, Vung Tau has been a favorite destination for locals from neighboring provinces. It is estimated that 90% of the visitors to the resort town are Vietnamese vacationers. This can be seen in festival or holidays occasions, when the beaches are often full of vacationers. For that reason, hundreds of hotels on main streets and numerous inns on narrow alleys are open to cater to the accommodation demands of travelers.

The Imperial Hotel, located on Thuy Van street that stretches along the famous Back Beach, is poised to open in the coming days. This is the first-ever five-star hotel in the city, targeting high-end vacationers and business travelers and contributing to diversify the accommodation segment to entice expatriates.

VietNamNet Bridge – The hydrofoil from HCMC to Vung Tau gradually reduces speed. I exit through the side door of the hydrofoil and feel at ease with the difference between the windy and sunny world of the coastal city of Vung Tau and the cramped world inside the hydrofoil.

About 120 kilometers from HCMC by road, Vung Tau has been well-known as an ideal destination for relaxing on stunning beaches and finding tranquility among the ancient pagodas. Seen from the sea, Vung Tau, or Cape Saint Jacques as it is called by the French, looks like other famous coastal cities such as the Riviera or Rio De Janerio with its red-tiled villas intermingling with buildings that lean on the mountainsides.

Vung Tau has two mountains. Large Mountain, also called Nui Lon, is in the north of the city and has a fortress that was built in 1788 during the Nguyen dynasty to control the sea. Small Mountain, also called Nui Nho, is in the south of the city and has an ancient fortress built by the French colony in the late nineteenth century.

During a two-day stay in the city of Vung Tau, my friend and I decided to journey by motorbike toz, the price dropped to VND120,000.

We started the journey early the following day. We left Vung Tau behind as we crossed the Cua Lap Bridge toward Phuoc Tinh Commune in Long Dien District. Previously, when tourists traveled from Vung Tau to Minh Dam base or Long Hai, they had to take a roundabout route through Ba Ria. However, the journey today was only half the distance due to newly built roads.

Riding along the coastal road to Minh Dam, we were thrilled by the beautiful scenery, especially the sections of road straddled by mountains and beaches. The road is planted with white and pink cherry blossoms. According to locals, the road is most beautiful in the springtime when the trees are in bloom.
