1/Flyboard 

This game brings you a special feeling that you should try in Nha Trang. This game have just been introduced into Vietnam, the first place is in Nha Trang in mid- 2014. At first, the price of ticket is quite expensive,, now it is lower but it is still not cheap. Because the cost for a set of Flyboard comes to 6000 usd , it means 120 million vnd, the cost for hiring is expensive.

To join this game , you must have a good health. Before playing the game, a teacher will train you in 1 hour to be similar to the game and then start playing.

2/ Sea Walking Trip 

This game will make you feel enjoyable, walking under the sea, watching the coral ranges and thousands of beautiful fish. There is no need for swimming when you are under the sea, just walking and a guide goes along with you , you don't even need the breather. You wear a hat like the hat of astronaut so you breathe the same on the ground. It is so interesting. It is a new kind of entertainment in Nha Trang , don't ignore it .

3/ It is a new game so the price is quite costly, but the most important things is you can experience something interesting under the sea. You are at the bottom of the sea like you are on the shore and in a Dragon castle.

This is a popular game on the beaches in Nha Trang. You control a water motorbike like you ride a scooter on the ground so it is easy to learning how to play this game. Sitting on the motorcycle and riding it, the feeling is so excited. 

Though it is easy to play , you still need to pay attention for some things such as: you always wear life jacket and how to solve if any problems happen. So remember to ask the staff about the solutions and do not ride close to the bridge and ships cause you maybe lose the control and have collision with objects. 

Somewhere here have the technical staff riding the motorcycle for you but if you want to ride it yourself, you have to admit the price and agree the regulations with the staff. 

4/ Riding banana float 

This sea game brings you a strong feeling. There are at least 2, 3 people in a float, 5 seated float or 7 seated float, the more the merrier. First , you have to wear the life jacket and then seating on the float, a canoe will drag you away with the speed from 50 km / hour to 80 km / hour, the indescribable feeling that I can't forget. But when it starts the players have to tell the rider slowing down the speed of canoe first, after that he can increase the speed.

this game is very popular at the beaches in Nha Trang, at Dai Beach or Vinperland or Hon Tam island,...

Monkey island in Nha Trang

Here are some information I know about Monkey Island in Lao Island:

I had an impressive trip in a summer month, exactly in August ,I had never visited Nha Trang before because my schedule was quite full and I did not have enough money for the trip so when I saved a little money I started to think about Nha Trang trip. 

My friends recommended me for some famous places in Nha Trang and I also search the information on  the internet , I saw Monkey Island has been one of the most famous places in Nha Trang attracting so many tourists , so I chose it for my list of placesI decided to travel to Nha Trang in August because it was the high time for travel and many people came here in this month.

After arriving in central Nha Trang and sightseeing places according to my list of places, I continued to depart for Lao Island to visit Monkey Island.

Monkey Island is about 15 kilometres north of  the center Nha Trang located on the Lao Island , Nha Phu Bay. If you want to go to Monkey Island, you have to buy the ticket at the port of Long Phu Tourist company ( native people call it Da Chong port). You go straight along the National Highway 1A  in the north way from Nha Trang center about 15 minutes.

After 15 minutes on the boat,  I had set foot on the sea island called Monkey Island . This island is very wild and attractive. There are more than 1,200 monkeys living here  with only two kinds of monkey, those are  Macaca Macaca and Rherus Fassicularit. I heard about the information about the monkey from the scientist. The monkeys are so cute and they are harmless, just like playing, we stand nearby and throw bananas for them . 

They gather around and not dare to come near to visitors but when they eat a lot of bananas from visitors they come closer many monkeys.  There are so many monkeys here and wherever you go , you can see monkeys around that is why they call the island as Monkey Island.

There are some people training monkeys to do the circus, they are professional because they performer like people, they can ride a bike, cyclo . So I admired those smart monkeys very much and you can also see the dag racing.

Here are the photos of Monkey Island tour: Circus Monkey, ostrich riding, Circus Elephant, Hon Lao Beach, Monkey Riding racing Dog. When I came to Monkey Island,  I enjoyed watching the monkeys playing together, feeding them and especially sea diving to see the coral , if I have another opportunity  to visit Monkey Island I would go here again. You should visit here once to feel the island's wildness and discover the monkey life.

I hope you guys will have an interesting trip to Monkey Island in Nha Trang!

Ponagar temple tower is 2 kilometers from Nha Trang

Po Nagar is a Champa temple tower on a small hill, at the foot of the bridge at Bong hamlet, 2 kilometers from central Nha Trang. Today Po Nagar Tower is a cultural and historical monument as well as a famous destination in Nha Trang which attacts many domestic and international tourists.

Once upon a time, at the Dai An mountains, Dai Dien hamlet, there was a farmer couple who were specialized in growing watermelons for sale. The watermelons were ripe and often stolen. They decided to watch for who stole the fruits. At one night, they saw a little girl about 9 or 10 years old who was picking watermelons and playing alone. They came closer and she told that she did not have a family. They decided to keep her with them like their daughter.

Time passed, the girl became mature. On a rainy day, she played with small stones, making them into 3 miniature landscapes and putting the flowers inside the landscapes. The male famer thought that her action was rude so he shouted at her . She was so sad and suddenly, she saw a wood on the river and evolved into the wood drifting along the river. She turned out to be a fairy.

The wood drifted out to sea and floated on the sea for many days and then it came to the shore next to the palace. This wood was so scented so people felt strange but no one can carry it. Everyone here talked about the strange wood so the crown prince, named Bac Hai, went to beach but the most strange thing was he could lift the wood easily. He brought it to palace and kept it like a precious thing.

At a full moon night, the moonlight illuminated his room, the prince saw from afar where put the wood someone but when he came closer , there was no one here, only smelt the scent of wood. Some days later, he watched for the wood and realized the human shadow but it disappeared when he came closer. One day he decided to hide next to the wood and he found out a beautiful girl, he immediately hugged her . They talked to each other, her name was Thien Y Ana and she was really beautiful. After that they got maried, lived happily and had one son and one daughter. 

Ana still missed her hometown and her family so she brought her children to hometown . When they arrived, her parents passed away. She built their graves and renovated the house to worship. While living in the hometown, she saw people here was still poor then she taught them how to farm work, weave ...

Later , the life was more and more well being . One day, a big bird brought Ana and her children to the sky . People remembered her merit so they built a tower and a statue to worship. Every year on 23th March ( Chinese calendar), people celebrate a festival for offering her flowers.
