Phu Yen recently has become a "rising star" among Vietnamese tourist attractions. With the exploitation of Tuy Hoa airport, it does open a check-in highlight for domestic travel. Tourists, especially the foreign, should not ignore this destination as it has not been nearly exposed much by the human hands, as well as the rip-offs.

Not as much crowded as other traveling sites, Phu Yen deserves the sleeping beauty of Vietnam.

Waiting for the first sunrise in Vietnam

One of the most must-try experience when visiting Phu Yen is to see the first sunrise at Dai Lanh Cape. As the easternmost point of Vietnam, Mui Dien, comprising of three tourist attractions, namely Bai Mon beach, Dai Lanh lighthouse, and Rang Dong (Sunrise) cape, is the initial place welcoming the sunrise view.

To catch this indispensable chance, tourists must wake up early, around 3 a.m to move to Mui Dien, 35km from Tuy Hoa City. The sun, according to the locals, rises at 5.22 a.m, which requires explorers an about 20 minutes trekking to the cape and the lighthouse.

The sunrise view does satisfy the tourists with beautiful beach scenes and impressive natural rocks.

Directing to the sea, travelers may chill out thanks to the romantic beachside and transparent sand. Bai Xep is not as crowded as other beaches so tourists could set them free to bathe or take photographs.
