THE MYSTERIOUS BEAUTY OF NHON HOI SEA-CROSSING BRIDGE
When talking about Quy Nhon, we cannot fail to mention the Nhon Hoi sea-crossing bridge, a special highlight among the tourist attractions in the capital of Binh Dinh province. Since its inauguration, the bridge has attracted tourists because it is located in the middle of the poetic mountains and sea, the scenery is always hazy, shimmering and beautiful, captivating all eyes. The bridge is part of the Nhon Hoi road and bridge system, nearly 7km long, connecting Quy Nhon city with Phuong Mai peninsula (Nhon Hoi Economic Zone).

From afar, the long white bridge across the blue sea, connecting the mainland on one side and the islands on the other, creates a masterpiece of beauty, standing out in the midst of a majestic, vast landscape. Especially when the sun gradually sets, thanks to the sunset, the bridge becomes sparkling, the last rays of the day shine down on the sea, the rays of light radiate with each day a different color, creating a captivating scene.

This is a meaningful project, not only creating convenience in traffic and economy, the bridge is also the pride of Quy Nhon people.

THE BEAUTY OF CU LAO HON KHO
Cu Lao Hon Kho is located in Nhon Hai commune, nearly 20 km from Quy Nhon city, one of the islands near the coast of Binh Dinh. The image was recorded at the end of June, the time considered the most beautiful of this place because of the blue sea and strong wind.
Hon Kho is one of the ideal coral viewing spots in Quy Nhon. The water is very clear. On June afternoons, the water recedes to reveal the bottom. From above, the seaweed and coral appear quite clearly, creating beautiful patches of color.
The corners of Hon Kho retain many wild and rustic features. Not only possessing clear blue sea water, this island is also surrounded by colorful coral reefs. Diving to see coral here has long become a tourist specialty of this island.
Because the island is very close to the shore, the service of transporting tourists from the mainland to Hon Kho takes less than 5 minutes by fisherman's boat or canoe. The price can be negotiated at 100,000 to 200,000 VND/person depending on the number of guests.
The beauty of Hon Kho is also created by the fishing boats of the people of Nhon Hai fishing village. Waking up in the fishing village early in the morning, visitors will feel the pace of life of the people here is not hurried. They start the new day with familiar work such as rowing baskets to pick seaweed, water spinach, catch fish, squid...
KY CO, EO GIO - FAMOUS DESTINATIONS IN QUY NHON
Coming to Quy Nhon, any tourist must visit Ky Co, an extremely beautiful entertainment and bathing spot of the "poetic" city. Ky Co is located in Nhon Ly commune, Binh Dinh province (about 23 - 27km from Quy Nhon city center).

On the way to visit Ky Co, visitors will check-in Eo Gio in Phuong Mai peninsula, Nhon Ly commune (about 20 km from Quy Nhon city). This is a very small strait surrounded and sheltered by high, winding rocky mountains.
Eo Gio has very clear blue water. On windy days, the waves continuously crash, creating cool white foam on the rugged rocks at the foot of the mountain. At the foot of the mountain is De rock beach with bumpy paths eroded by seawater over the years. The rocks here come in many sizes and interesting shapes, creating a masterpiece of rock and water.
Over many years of water and rock erosion and the weathering process of sea winds, nature has created 19 bird nest caves and people have given them very suitable names such as Ky Co cave, Ba Nghe cave, Bat cave, Health cave...
The sea water in Eo Gio is so clear that when wading in, visitors will see their feet shimmering due to the refraction of light combined with the reflection of sunlight. And of course, when walking on the rocks, the girls have countless virtual photo angles.
Come here early in the morning or late in the afternoon when the sunlight turns golden like honey, stand from above and look towards the distant horizon to feel the beautiful natural atmosphere, or lie down and relax on large rocks of many sizes.
