Hon Ba

Hon Ba in Vung Tau is a small oasis in the middle of the sea with an area of ​​about 5000m2. It is located quite close to the mainland so it is visited by many tourists. This is a very attractive spiritual tourist destination, on the island there is the famous sacred Ba Temple. In addition, visitors coming here can also admire the beautiful sea path connecting Hon Ba and the coast. In terms of location, Hon Ba is located in the Back Beach area of ​​Vung Tau city, only about 200m from Nghinh Phong Cape and the foot of Nho Mountain. If you want to see the whole panorama of Ba Island, you can try climbing on the shoulder of the Christ statue, from here you will have a panoramic view of the entire scenery of this island. To facilitate the exploration of religious culture at Hon Ba and travel to Vung Tau, you should go on worship occasions such as January, April, July, and October of the lunar calendar each year. For tourists who want to combine a visit to Vung Tau, the period from May to October will be the best, at this time there is little rain and mild sunshine, making it extremely ideal for sightseeing. In the period from November to April, Vung Tau will have quite hot weather. Ba Hon Ba Vung Tau Temple is definitely the first place that many tourists will want to visit. The name Mieu Ba was born in the late 18th century. The temple was built to worship the Water Dragon God to pray for good weather and wind so that fishermen can feel secure when going fishing. Ba in the word Mieu Ba means Thuy Long Than is a female deity. In order for Ba Temple to be as spacious as it is today, the people of Thang Tam village have donated money many times to restore the temple. Ba Temple is also associated with an extremely sacred event. In 1939, a French officer, Archinard, ordered 3 cannon shots to be fired at Ba Temple. Only one hit out of 3 shots. Just a few days later, this officer lost his life at the temple due to careless use of a gun. This made the French army feel that Ba Temple was very sacred and no longer dared to destroy it. In addition to spiritual tourism at Ba Vung Tau island, you will also have the opportunity to admire the natural scenery here. There is a source of fresh air here so the vegetation is very developed with the green colors of poplar trees, coconut trees, areca nuts and plumeria flowers. This place is also one of the few places untouched by human hands, the landscape still retains its natural wildness so it is very suitable for exploration. When visiting Hon Ba, you need to note the following. First, you need to move carefully, because there are many sharp rocks and broken barnacles along the way. Be careful because the rock surface is quite slippery, remember to wear shoes to better protect your feet. When traveling, there will certainly be many other tourists with you, so you should be careful of pushing and jostling. Because this is a spiritual place, remember to choose discreet clothing when visiting. The sea route to Ba Vung Tau island usually appears from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., so remember to prepare drinking water and snacks. Finally, do not throw trash into the sea or at tourist attractions to join hands to protect the marine environment.
