About Vung Tau

Vung Tau is a seaside city on a peninsula in southern Vietnam, a weekend retreat for Ho Chi Minh City with beaches, a hilltop Christ statue and seafood.

Vung Tau occupies a peninsula on the South China Sea in the south of Vietnam, south-east of Ho Chi Minh City, with two small mountains rising from the coast. Under the French it was called Cap Saint-Jacques, and it still has colonial buildings such as the White Palace, a villa of 1898 set among frangipani trees on the hillside. A lighthouse built in 1862 stands on the Small Mountain with views over the bay.
