1 Day Itinerary in Phu Quoc Island

📍 Itinerary Overview Phu Quoc is famous for its sandy beaches, azure waters and tropical vegetation. Due to its unique microclimate conducive to relaxation, the island is home to two attractions known throughout Asia - the VinWonders and SunWorld amusement parks. To reach the latter, you have to use the world's longest cable car. The largest urban centers of Phú Quốc In addition to the huge amusement parks, the largest city of the province - Dương Đông - is located in the central-western part of the island. This is a very important town for local life, because it is here that there are many hotels and hostels with an urban character, which - as it turns out - are inhabited by tourists who prefer a party lifestyle. However, right next to the hotel strip running through the entire town runs the main road connecting both ends of the island, so the impressions of relaxation can be really different. Dương Đông is the best urbanized urban center on the island. The first airport on the island used to operate here, but after the construction of a new one, it is slowly being absorbed by the city. You can recognize the place by the still-functioning runway, which is a city bypass allowing you to bypass the crowded center. Although you shouldn't bypass the center, because it is the essence of Vietnamese life. In the city center there is a Night Market, tourist shops and various types of restaurants, including seafood. There are four temples worth seeing in Dương Đông. The most famous one is a colorful Cao Dai church with squat towers. Closer to the coast is the Dinh Bà temple, which is visited by fishermen, asking the patroness for successful and abundant catches. Right by the shore there is another one - together with the lighthouse, it is one of the most beautiful landmarks on the island. From the upper terrace of the temple you will see beautiful views, including: to the nearby beach and port. In the city center, at the main intersection, there is another temple. Most tourists bypass it, but it is this one - Sùng Hưng Cổ Tự - that is the oldest brick temple on the island. It was built in the late 19th century. In the small port there is also a mysterious object - a brown block, which is actually a monument representing a barrel for making fish sauce. It is a symbol commemorating traditional local crafts. 🚇 Transportation Use Grab and free VinBus 🏠 Accommodation The Shells Resort and SPA 5* Eko Beach Resort 3* 💡 Tips
