Phu Yen\u2019s location<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Phu Yen is a coastal province, lying in the Central of Vietnam, between Binh Dinh Province (Quy Nhon) and Khanh Hoa Province (Nha Trang). The biggest and most populated city in Phu Yen is Tuy Hoa city, yet the city remained unknown to the mass public because its government did not invest much in fields of tourism. It is not until the launch of the movie Yellow Flowers on the Green Grass (Toi thay hoa vang tren co xanh) which was shot in Phu Yen that these picturesque landscapes started to draw attention from tourists in Vietnam. They, since then, flocked to this untouched and beautiful place to discover Phu Yen.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8453\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8453\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8453\" src=\"https:\/\/luxtraveldmc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/rice-field-phu-yen-vietnam-e1580314539858.jpg\" alt=\"Phu Yen: A guide to explore the beautiful land of Southern Vietnam\" width=\"750\" height=\"473\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8453\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; color: #333333;\">Source: Lux Travel DMC<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Encompassing a wide variety of mountains lagoons, fertile plains, and rivers with over 200 kilometers of shoreline along the curving south-central coast of Vietnam. With less reputation than the famous Nha Trang, Phu Yen is a great alternative for those who fancy a quiet and peaceful beach shore where they can enjoy patches of golden sand to themselves.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you are a person who always yearns for adventures, then Phu Yen can also provide you with one of the most exciting ones with all its ancient remnants and water sports here. There are also ports, mountains and bays nearby where tourists can explore a tropical forest full of rare and exotic plants and animals. You are about to have one of the vacations of your life in Phu Hoa with all the relaxation and services it has to offer here.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"II_A_Brief_History_of_The_Land_and_why_its_worth_visiting\"><\/span>II.

They absorbed the Champa kingdom and remained the land \u201cPhu Yen\u201d as it is called today. In Vietnamese, \u201cPhu Yen\u201d means future prosperity and peaceful &#8211; the hope that did not last when the Vietnam War happened.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 1975, Phu Yen was set free from the Saigon government\u2019s ruling after the end of the Vietnam War. Step by step, this land grows into the ideal point of interest like it is now.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"III_Weather_and_Best_time_to_visit_Phu_Yen\"><\/span>III.

With just 500 meters in length, the beach looks exactly like a small kingdom that is isolated.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8456\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8456\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8456\" src=\"https:\/\/luxtraveldmc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bai-xep-phu-yen-vietnam-e1580315367305.jpg\" alt=\"Phu Yen: A guide to explore the beautiful land of Southern Vietnam\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8456\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; color: #333333;\">Source: Instagram @tphien1912<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you climb up the cliff, there is a good chance you can clearly see your friend beneath &#8211; and who can deny the temptation of fresh air with the unique smell of the green grass and salty vibe from the ocean? Its tranquility and breathtaking features will absolutely blow your mind.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Bai Xep is over 14 kilometers far from Tuy Hoa. Located in district Tuy An, Bai Xep is not something you can walk to if you stay in Phu Yen\u2019s capital town &#8211; but the distance is worth it when you witness the beauty of this place.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8457\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8457\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8457\" src=\"https:\/\/luxtraveldmc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/beach-at-bai-xep-phuyen-vietnam-e1580315541755.jpg\" alt=\"Phu Yen: A guide to explore the beautiful land of Southern Vietnam\" width=\"750\" height=\"562\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8457\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; color: #333333;\">Source: Instagram @chubby1603<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Mon_Beach_%E2%80%93_Mui_Dien_Dien_Cape\"><\/span>2.

You can expect all the freshness and relaxation when coming here while watching its crystal clear seawater and golden sand stretching out the shore. From here, there is one activity you can not miss: watching the sun rises since Mon beach is located at the easternmost point of the country. In other words, this place is also called \u201cVietnam\u2019s earliest dawn land\u201d.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8458\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8458\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8458\" src=\"https:\/\/luxtraveldmc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/light-house-mui-dien-dam-mon-phu-yen-vietnam-e1580315666147.jpg\" alt=\"Phu Yen: A guide to explore the beautiful land of Southern Vietnam\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8458\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; color: #333333;\">Source: Lux Travel DMC<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Being the very first place in the country to watch the sunrise, Mon beach, especially Dai Lanh Cape is very attractive for both domestic and international tourists.

Most head for Tran Hung Dao Street, where numerous local shops and the huge Tuy Hoa market are located. This is where you can find everything, from handmade crafts, food to clothing and more.

One of the most famous souvenirs is the dried bird-nest soup, which used to be a nutrient and luxurious dish exclusively for the royal in the past. The birds make their nests from their own saliva and the nests are harvested twice a year. And its price? It can go as high as $2,000 per kilogram because all Asians believe that the food helps eaters to be more healthy and boosting virility.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"VII_The_food_you_should_not_miss_when_visiting_Phu_Yen\"><\/span>VII. The food you should not miss when visiting Phu Yen<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It comes as no surprise to people as Phu yen is the heart of the most amazing seafood because it is right on the coast. But tourists may be surprised by what is on the menu. Here, you will see dishes that beyond your imagination like Tuna\u2019s eye soup, fermented fish or beans.

Salted anchovy<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you need to talk about just one Vietnam\u2019s seasoning in its hundreds of herbs, powders, and fermented stuff, that thing must be the fish sauce, made of salted fish. And in Phu Yen, you will have the chance to witness how fishermen catch their anchovy in the early months of the year. Here in Phu Yen, people make fish sauce with anchovy (M\u1eafm C\u00e1 C\u01a1m) to have the thickest and most delicious fish sauce all over Vietnam. You will have the chance to see people make the sauce from 300 to 400 kilograms of fish, put them in a wooden box for more than half a year until the fish starts to melt into the thick and full-of-protein sauce.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8480\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8480\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8480\" src=\"https:\/\/luxtraveldmc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/dried-anchovy-e1580440178154.jpg\" alt=\"Phu Yen: A guide to explore the beautiful land of Southern Vietnam\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8480\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"color: #333333;\">Source: Pixabay &#8211; asjjuni0<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You should try some slices of pineapples with this Salted Anchovy since the sauce reduce the sour and acid in pineapple while the fragrant of the fruit reduces the strong smell of the sauce.
