Christ the King Statue – A Sacred Symbol of Vung Tau

Standing 32 meters tall atop Nui Nho (Small Mountain), the Christ the King Statue is one of Asia’s largest. After climbing 847 steps, visitors are rewarded with stunning panoramic views of Vung Tau’s coastline. You can even step inside the statue to admire the city from Christ’s outstretched arms — a truly spiritual and iconic landmark of Vung Tau.

Thang Tam Temple – A Sacred Spiritual Site in Vung Tau

Thang Tam Temple is a revered spiritual site dedicated to Ca Ong (the Whale God), protector of fishermen. The complex includes the Communal House, Hon Ba Temple, and the Lady of the Five Elements Temple. Inside, a giant whale skeleton reflects the locals’ deep respect for the sea. With its ancient architecture and rich legends, this temple is both culturally and spiritually significant.

Bach Dinh (White Palace) – A Glimpse of Colonial Charm

Perched on Big Mountain, Bach Dinh is a French colonial mansion built in the early 20th century as Governor Paul Doumer’s retreat. With white walls, red-tiled roofs, and sea views, it beautifully blends European elegance with natural scenery. Now a museum displaying antiques and historical artifacts, it’s a must-see for history lovers. After the visit, enjoy lunch and relax.

13:30 After lunch, enjoy free time at Thuy Van beach (Back beach) – one of the nicest beaches in Vietnam with the shore runs for almost 10km, full of fine sands and white waves.

Mui Nghinh Phong – The Cape of Welcoming Wind

Stretching into the sea, Mui Nghinh Phong offers breathtaking views of Vung Tau’s Front and Back Beaches. Known for its cool breeze and tranquil vibe, it’s a favorite spot for nature lovers and photographers.
