Vong Canh Hill

Vietnam

이야기 6구간

Vong Canh itself is now covered with pine trees and daisy. Once, there was a purpose-built watching tower on the top of the hill, though only parts of its foundation remain until today. Besides, Water plant Van Nien – which is the oldest in Central Vietnam and an Oriental-styled building designed by French architecture, just 300m from Vong Canh, is also a visit-worthy destination.
