All the main attractions are next to each other, and one -day trips to the entertainment park, ecopark and the Dalata mountain resort will help diversify the sea everyday life. We tell you how to plan a trip.

Where to stop:

- Two -star hotel Star Light Nha Trang (rating 10) – from 800 rubles per day*.
- Hotel Khách Sạn Flower Sky (rating 9.2) – from 700 rubles per night*.
The architectural feature of many Nha Trang hotels are light mines. These are narrow deaf pipes that help distribute sunlight from the opening on the roof along the interior of the building. The windows of some rooms in hotels do not go out into the street, but to the light mine. In this case, the view opens only by four concrete walls, as if an open elevator is always behind the window. When booking numbers, it is better to clarify which window it is in the description of the rooms.
Promenade along the municipal beach and Gorky Park
Nha Trang is a city resort, so most hotels do not have their own territory. Almost all seven kilometers of the beach belong to the city and are public. The first -line housing and the sea share a lively road and coastal promenade.
The main point of attraction of Nhazhang is Gorky Park, or Central Park. In this shady grove there are pools, bars, restaurants and children’s attractions. The entrance to the territory is free, but you will have to pay extra for access to the pool and the beach. For money, tourists are provided with sunbeds, umbrellas and other amenities that may not be in the public areas. In addition, it is noticeably cleaner than on city beaches.
Along the alley along the sea, which passes through the park, you can reach a noticeable model of modern Vietnamese architecture – the Ladana Tower, also known as the Lotus Tower. Bulbed city quarters begin in this place.
Tyami towers Ponagar
One of the oldest buildings on the territory of Nhazhang – the towers of Ponagar, which have been built for the VIII – XIII centuries. The medieval temple complex is located on a high hill. Once upon a time, it was a major religious center of the South Asian people of Tyam (or Cham), which founded the Nhazhang. Here they worshiped the mother goddess. The well -preserved structure is included in the list of national architectural monuments of Vietnam. It consists of three zones: entrance gates, imperial premises and sites with towers for events. Every year, in March, the Buddhist festival Thap Ba is held in this space, which attracts many local residents.
It is recommended to visit the towers in closed clothes. Forgetable tourists at the entrance are offered bedspreads. Having examined the towers and sanctuaries, go to the edge of the hill, a little away from the main site, and look from a height at the panorama of the city and the bay.
Pagoda Longshon
A giant statue of the White Buddha rises above the main Buddhist temple complex of the province of Khanho. A spectacular composition is very popular among tourists and photographers. It was installed in the 1960s at the place where the first Longshon pagoda was built at the end of the 19th century. In 1900, after a terrible storm, the remains of the building were moved to the foot of the hill and a new temple was already erected there. Today, 152 stone steps decorated with dragon sculptures lead to the top of the hill. Visitors can hide from the scorching sun in a small shady kindergarten with ponds.
Vinpearl Entertainment Park
Not only foreign tourists, but also the Vietnamese themselves come to spend the day on the famous Island of entertainment in Nha Track. The complex consists of attractions, water park, theater, cinema, oceanarium, spa, shopping centers and restaurants. There may not be enough one day to visit all objects. Some guests prefer to spend the night in hotels in the park in order to continue the study of the island the next day, and in the evening to go to a large -scale show of fountains. Those who are tired of noisy fun can hide in silence on one of the beach zones with snow -white sand.
The territory of VINPEARL occupies about 200,000 square meters. m. This is the only amusement park with fresh water on the sea coast of Vietnam. You can get to the island of Honcha on a boat or via a cable car, the longest of those that pass over the sea. Its length is more than 3,200 meters.
Grill Garden
One of the interesting gastronomic entertainment of Nhazhang is restaurants in the “Create yourself” format. There is no menu and prices. Strictly speaking, there are no finished dishes themselves either. By paying a fixed amount for entering the institution, sit down for one of the tables in the center of which the roasting is built -in. Arm yourself with a plate and tweezers and apply fresh seafood, vegetables, as well as chicken meat, crocodiles, ostriches from long common tables. You have to prepare a “catch” on your own on your table. The line between the raw and the over -legged is incredibly thin, so smiling on duty around the hall come to the rescue tourists. They tell how to correctly calculate the time so that each type of product comes into perfect condition. And what is nice, the amount of food is not limited,
Ecopark Young Bay
If you want to be in nature, go to the ecopark Young Bay, which is 40 km from Nha Trang. Its picturesque territory consists of several zones. You can find secluded corners and enjoy wildlife on thermal springs or waterfalls. There are more exotic entertainment: for example, feeding carps from nipples, cock -ahead battles or risking on ostriches near the zoo. The traditional musical performance of the local people Raglaev introduces visitors to the national color and culture of the region. The territory of the park is quite large, so you can move not only on foot, but also on train.
You can get to Young Bay from Nhanga by taxi or sightseeing buses, watching the mountains, rice fields and villages along the road.
Dalat
The resort of 140 km from Nha Trang is known among European tourists who want to improve health with fresh mountain air. Until the middle of the 20th century, this city was French territory, so colonial Catholic buildings and European houses were preserved here. Travelers often come to Dalat for several days.
However, you can go here from Nhazhang and for a day. A trip on a regular bus will take about four hours, so we advise you to rent a car or use a taxi. In this case, the path will take 2.5 hours.
The program at least includes two attractions that can be found on any postcards and souvenirs.
Where to stop:
Hotel The Note Dalat (rating 9.5) – from 3,100 rubles per night*.
Two -star hotel Hưng NGUYUN VILLA đà LạT (rating 10) – from 1,000 rubles per night*.
Five -star hotel Ladalat Hotel (rating 8.4) – from 9,100 rubles per night*.
Hotel Crazy House
This is not only a hotel, but also a creative residence in which there are no two identical numbers. Guests live in hollows, castles, nests and sea grottoes. It seems that in the building, reminiscent of a large fabulous stump, there is not a single flat line. Connoisseurs of architecture will immediately notice references to the work of Antonio Gaudi. The Crazy House Hotel designed Dange Viet NGA, the daughter of an influential Vietnamese politician. She received a doctoral degree in the field of architecture at Moscow State University.
Temple Lin Fuok (“Temple of thousands of dragons”)
The unique pagoda of the fuel line is very richly decorated. Bright color facades are decorated with figures of lions, elephants, dragons, firewood and other bizarre fairy-tale creatures. The walls and sculptures are lined with ceramic mosaics, porcelain, glass and pieces of mirrors. Considering the fragments, you can see that they are all not like each other. The legend says that these are local residents and pilgrims brought their broken dishes and utensils to decorate the temple. Pagoda interiors are also richly painted and decorated. On the seven floors of one of the towers of the temple, hundreds of gilded sculptures of the Buddha and one of the largest bells in Vietnam were installed.
And in the basement, the fuel line is the so -called “entrance to hell”. During a short trip along the back streets of the “horror cave”, you can feel what suffering the souls of sinners experience. The impressions are not the most pleasant, so many tourists do not recommend taking children into this room.
