Highlights
Arrive in Vam Sat Eco Park, where you see natural habitat as well as enjoy crab fishing and bird-watching for exotic local and migratory species. You can also enjoy another mangrove jungle walk. Crocodile fishing could challenge your fishing skill. The mangroves forest in Can Gio possesses a high biodiversity with more than 200 species of fauna and 52 species of flora. The effects of the recent wars on these ecosystems have been devastating and large efforts have been made by local people to rehabilitate the mangroves. When we visit monkey island, you will be very surprised and realized that monkeys are everywhere on the island. The monkeys agilely move on the trees, run on the ground, move toward visitors and look at them with curious eyes. Some monkeys are quite friendly and cute, but some are crazy. When visiting the island, you should obey the rule with staying within a certain distance from them and don’t touch or feed them

The Independence Palace preserves its rooms as they were at the end of the war, and the War Remnants Museum tells the story of the conflict with sobering directness.
