Describing the small coastal town as a new beachholiday destination, the article said Quy Nhon has the charms that many popularbeach towns in this part of the world have lost: peace and quiet, the slowlife, and genuine friendliness from the locals.

Recently,Quy Nhon’s pristine beaches, emerald waters, and superbly fresh seafood havebeen drawing visitors.
The article presented an overview of the town’s rich cultural history datingback to ancient times, and highlighted some local attractions such asChampa-era ruins and bustling fresh markets where a large variety of freshseafood can be found along with tasty food.
“This is one of the places to enjoy a restfulbeach holiday, to recharge the battery and reconnect with oneself.
