Are you travelling on a budget but want to get the best of Vietnam and Quy Nhon? Here are some great free attractions and experiences to consider!
Although this experience may not always be free, island hopping is definitely a less costly thing to do while you're in Quy Nhon. There are a plethora of tiny islands off the coast of Quy Nhon, each unique in its own way. In fact, some of the islands are so small, that you're able to only snorkel or sail around them! Some of the more popular islands you can go to are Ky Co Island and Kho Island! Kho Island is a great location to spot coral reefs and Ky Co boasts a better-than-nothing beautiful beach with extra clear waters which are ideal for swimming.
It is thought that these towers were initially used for worship all the way back in the 2nd Century AD. Originally, this structure was made of wood, which was brought to the ground in AD 774, and later replaced by stone and brick. The towers are also said to honour the goddess of the Dua Clan, Yang Ino Po Nagar, and are still used for worship by the Chinese, Cham and Vietnamese Buddhists. Originally, there were eight towers, however, only four remain presently. Among things to do in Quy Nhon, the Cham towers are a must-visit to witness the religious prominence of the towers. This is an attraction almost all hotels such as Avani Quy Nhon Resort will recommend.
This is the longest sea bridge in Vietnam, measuring over two kilometres long, and is said to be responsible for the growth of the economy and tourism in the region. You'll be in the middle of the ocean with splendid views of teal waters and lush mountains in the distance. While this is not necessarily the most sought-after attraction in Quy Nhon, it's free and leads to sand dunes and a perfect lagoon. Don't forget your camera!
Are you a lover of beautiful sunsets that leave a lasting impression? You must head to Eo Gio in Quy Nhon! You can also visit this scenic location during the day and it's equally pleasing to the eye, but Eo Gio takes the cake for the best sunset views. The landscape of the cliffs and water is fun to explore!
Visiting the nearby fishing villages in Quy Nhon is another way to embrace the local culture and life. Stop by at one of the many authentic fishing villages to catch a glimpse of how fisher families make a living and go about their life. You know you're in a fishing village when you see all the tiny blue fishing boats sitting on the beach, ready to be used early in the morning! You can also try and strike a conversation with the locals for more insight!
