The picturesque beauty of Mui Dinh

romantic beauty like a love letter of Ninh Thuan embracing the beautiful Central
strip of land.

sense.

rushes to the shore, blending with the white sand, creating a peaceful feeling
for those who visit here. The large rocks with strange shapes are like a strange
highlight for the scenery of Mui Dinh.

Dinh like a colorful landscape painting stretching out to the vast ocean. In

stretching out among the white sand.

colonial period in 1904, with the task of lighting the way for ships entering
and leaving the cape safely.
