Mui Ne is an eco-tourist site still in primitive appearance, about 22 km to
the East of Phan Thiet City. It is the name of a coastal ward in Phan Thiet
City. Visiting Mui Ne, visitors can walk under rows of coconut trees running
along the beach with the blue sea on side and white and white sand dunes on the
other.
It is found on Highway No. 706, and features sweeping sand dunes and
beautiful rows of palm
trees. The beach is shallow and sloped, the water is
clean and blue and the sun rarely hides behind clouds. There are desolate and
primeval beaches that have never witnessed human exploitation as well as
imposing landscapes.
The most impressive thing to visitors coming to Mui Ne is the Sand dunes. To
many photographers, these sanddunes have become the theme of photography for
years. Each dune has its own beauty. In dry season, these enormous sand dunes
continuously change their shapes under winds. And after a rain, the rain drops
create picturesque wavy veins. From the dunes, tourist may see the whole view of
Mui Ne surrounded harmoniously by the blue sea, setting up a wild and enchanting
picture that exists nowhere.
Apart from beaches and sand dunes, there are also beautiful landscapes such
as Suoi Tien (Fairy Spring), the Ong Hoang Building and the Poshanu Cham Tower.
Mui Ne has long been considered the "Hawaii" of Vietnam. It boasts shady
roads under coconut trees, a beautiful beach and cliffs battered by the waves of
the sea. The typical scenery of Mui Ne lies in the moving lines of golden sand
caused by the wind and when they are seen from afar they look like moving waves.
The scenery looks more fascinating at dawn, when young Cham girls in green
dresses go to work. That's why no photographer fails to visit this area. Mui Ne
is an ideal place for rest and relaxation. Visitors can certainly enjoy swimming
in the blue water of the sea, climbing the sand dunes or relaxing by a swimming
pool. In fact this oasis entertainment people of all ages, and furthermore,
provides an endless inspiration to the artists' creation.
1. Fairies’ Stream
Suoi Tien (Fairies’ Stream) is a natural beauty spot with a magnificent
mountain-water view, a primitive environment untouched by human beings. Standing
near a small stream with clear clean water is an imposing mountain of white and
red colors created by the sand and soil, and caves and cliffs, which are unique
and strange-looking. This is an ideal place for picnics. The site is on the way
to Mui Ne, about 15 km to the North-East Phan Thiet City.
2. Poshanu Towers
Poshanu Towers, 7 km to the North – East of Phan Thiet City, are located on
Ong Hoang (Mr. Heaven) Hill. Built by the Cham people in the late 8th century,
this group of towers worships the Shiva Genie, who is highly respected by the
Cham. Beside these three towers, there was once a temple, but it has been buried
in the ground for more than 300 years. Inside the main tower, there is an altar,
on which a couple of Liga-Yoni, a symbol of the existence of the Shiva Genie, is
worshipped.
