Places to visit in Nha Trang
Ponagar Temple

Ponagar Temple is a historical and cultural monument of Nha Trang which was built between the 7th and 13th century. This national temple is dedicated to Queen Po Ina Nagar who shared the crucial knowledge of agriculture and craftsmanship with the Cham civilization. Due to this, the people of the Cham clan still hold great respect and reverence for Ponagar Temple.

Hon Chong Beach
Hon Chong Beach, Nha Trang: The narrow granite promontory of Hon Chong offers fine views of the mountainous coastline north of Nha Trang and the nearby islands. The beach here has a more local flavor than Nha Trang Beach (but the accompanying refuse is unpleasant). Still, it's fun to watch the local kids do Acapulco-style swan dives into the ocean.

There are a reconstructed traditional run residence and a great cafe. A taxi here from the city center is around 30,000d.About 300m south of Hon Chong (towards Nha Trang) and a few dozen meters from the beach is tiny Hon Do (Red Island), which has a Buddhist temple on top. To the northeast is Hon Rua (Tortoise Island), which really does resemble a tortoise. The two islands of Hon Yen (Bird’s-Nest Island) are off in the distance to the east.

A well-known spot of scenic beauty, the Rock Hon Chong is not only attractive to visitors to Nha Trang but also no less allure to the local inhabitants, children as well as grownups who have made frequent visits to this place. In the vernacular, it means the "Husband Rock", the name given to one of the two rocks, the couple, the other one is the wife.


City Beach, Nha Trang
City Beach, Nha Trang: Loud and proud (say it!), the high-rise, the high-energy beach resort of Nha Trang enjoys a stunning setting: ringed by a necklace of hills, with a sweeping crescent beach, the city's turquoise bay is dotted with tropical islands. The shoreline has been given a huge makeover in recent years, with parks and sculpture gardens spread along the impressive promenade, while the streets inland reveal some quirky boutiques and a cosmopolitan array of dining options. As the restaurants wind down, the nightlife cranks up – Nha Trang is a party town at heart like any self-respecting resort should be. Forget the cafes of the capital; people play late in this town. If cocktails and shooters aren’t your flavors, there are some more sedate activities on offer. Try an old-school spa treatment with a visit to a mud bath or explore centuries-old Cham towers still standing in the center of town. This part of the country has its very own microclimate and the rains tend to come from October until December, a time best avoided if you are into lazing on the beach or diving in the tropical waters.


Pagoda Long Son
If you have a fetish for exploring the striking pagodas while you are visiting Vietnam, then this is another place which is a must visit for you. Also known as the Chua Long Son,Pagoda Long Son is arranged on the foothill of Trai Thuy Mountain in the city of Nha Trang. The temple is well known for its substantial white Buddha picture, which sits on the mountain peak and can be seen from anyplace nearby. This temple was built in the year 1886 in the style of Taoist engineering, Long Son Pagoda has been home to some high-positioning Buddhist friars and the Vietnam Buddhist Studies Foundation was established here in 1936.

Highlights: As you enter the temple you can see the passageway and rooftops are brightened with dragon mosaics which are worked from glass and fired tiles. The fundamental formal lobby is enhanced with current elucidations of traditional themes. The nasal hairs of the mythical beasts are wrapped around the columns on either side of the primary sacrificial table.

Po Nagar

Regularly known as Thap Ba, the Po Nagar Cham Towers are a complex of sanctuaries raised around before 781 A.D.This confused site had a place with the medieval territory of Khauthara, a little nation close present day Nha Trang. In the event that you are fascinating ever, you can be flabbergasted to discover many old relics showed inside the complex.

Highlights: Another intriguing thing about this place is that every one of the sanctuaries confront east, as did the first access to the mind boggling, which is to the perfectly fine climb the hillock. In hundreds of years past, admirers went through the pillared contemplation lobby, 10 mainstays of which can at present be seen, before continuing up the lofty staircase to the towers.
