People visiting Ha Tien hope to capture the magic of the land in South Vietnam, where many heroic historical places such as imperial tombs and ancient pagodas can be visited.

 

Ha Tien is such a delightful location that a French film company chose it to produce the movie "Lamant" (The Lover) in 1995. It is an ideal location to spend holidays.

 

There are several attractions in the area: Thach Dong stone grotto, a piece of green stone emerging from the ground; Chong stone; Hon Phu Tu, Father and Son rocks which lie approximately 100 m offshore; and Hang Pagoda. By boat, one can reach Hai Tac islets, 16 islets around which the water is 4 m deep. On the coast of Hon Doc, the largest islet, is a magnificent white sand beach running towards the sea.

 

Near Hon Chong Beach is Tien Cave that has 2 openings; the east door on the sea and the west door, opening on Duoc Beach.

In the cave are many oddly shaped stone drops, some suggesting Nguyen King’s gold throne.

 

Hon Trem Beach, 1000 m from Hon Chong Beach offers the nicest white sand in Ha Tien. Hang Pagoda is also very interesting. This pagoda, 40 m underground, somber and foggy, echoes the sounds of the pagoda’s bell on the stone drops.
