Beautiful Spots From Phong Nha To Hoi An
Vinh Moc Tunnels
Vinh Moc Tunnels is a historic site of Quang Tri Province with great significance to Vietnamese history. It was once an underground miniaturized village, which was home to hundreds of Vietnamese people during the outrageous war.
This massive tunnel system, also the largest historical tunnel in the demilitarized zone of Vietnam, brings that difficult time to life, leaving tourists with strong feelings and a better understanding of the history.
Cua Viet Beach
This is a beautiful beach in Quang Tri Province with a white sandy coastline and pure water. The 1-kilometer beach spreads out with an eye-catching grace and pleasant views. It’s a perfect place to take a short rest and enjoy some fresh air when walking along the coastline.
Hien Luong Bridge – Ben Hai River
Hien Luong Bridge over the Ben Hai River was once the division between the north and the south of Vietnam during the war. Thus, it has become another important witness of Vietnamese history. When come here, you can learn somewhat about the strong will to protect the peace of the Vietnamese.
You might want to enjoy some fresh air when standing on the bridge and take some photos.
La Vang Church
La Vang Church, also known as La Vang Holy Land, is a national church for Vietnamese Catholics. It is located in Hai Lang District, Quang Tri Province. The church was established as the Catholics believe that Mother Mary appeared in this area in 1798 on a three-banyan tree.
It has become an important place of pilgrimage for Catholics in Vietnam.
Hue City
As the ancient capital of Vietnam during the Nguyen Dynasty, Hue City has a load of attractions for you to see. We can name some prominent ones, such as Truong Tien Bridge, Perfume River, Hue Imperial City, Thien Mu Pagoda, Hue Royal Tombs, Dong Ba Market, and so on.
We think it might take you a couple of days to discover them all. So, for such a short trip from Phong Nha to Hoi An, we recommend you have the driver take you to the city center and take photographs of the most iconic symbols of Hue city – Perfume River and Truong Tien Bridge.
Hai Van Pass
Hai Van Pass, or Sea Cloudy Pass, is considered the top-gear route in Vietnam, with winding roads around the mountain and breathtaking views. As a border separating Hue and Da Nang, it provides travelers with an unimaginable panorama of both areas.
It’s another wonderful place to take a short break. Moreover, there are some coffee shops here, so you can enjoy a cup of Vietnamese coffee in such a scenic view and take unique photos.
Da Nang City
Da Nang City has had a booming development for the last two decades, especially in tourism. Thus, there are numerous attractions to see, such as Ba Na Hills with the world-known Golden Bridge.
Yet, for a limited time, we cannot have a complete visit to Da Nang. We recommend you drop by one of the most popular attractions in this land – Marble Mountains. Here, you can explore five limestone mountains, beautiful natural scenery, and the old pagoda inside its cave.
Please note that you should not visit all the places listed on the above list. As time is limited, you should only choose some of them to add to your itinerary.
Bus Transfer
Bus is popular among tourists because of its low price. It ranges only from 12 USD/trip. However, sometimes, you have to deal with delays, careless drivers, and crowded spaces. Therefore, choosing a reliable bus supplier is very important.
We recommend Hanh Cafe, Sinh Tourist, Queen Cafe, Camel Travel, or Hung Thanh. As their schedules are not fixed, we cannot provide detailed itineraries for you. You can go online and check their available trips 5-2 days before your preferred travel date.
Railway And Airway Transfer
Unfortunately, there are no railway stations or airports in Hoi An. If you want to go by train, you have to go from Dong Hoi Railway Station to Da Nang Railway Station or Tam Ky Station. Then, you take another road vehicle to Hoi An.
Similarly, if you want to take a flight, you can go from Dong Hoi Airport to Da Nang Airport. Then, you have another road transfer to reach Hoian.
Transfers by train are more affordable with quite uncomfortable space while airway transfers are more comfortable with more expensive costs. Yet, their common drawback is that you have to follow their schedules, which are sometimes changed and delayed.
