Quy Nhon history
Found almost a century ago, Quy Nhon is popular for being the birthplace of the 18th-century Vietnamese emperor Nguyễn Huệ. Also, during the famous Ming Treasure voyages of the 15th century, the Chinese fleet led by Admiral Zheng He used to anchor at the port at Quy Nhon as the first destination after departing from China. Today, this coastal city in Vietnam boasts expansive geo-economic growth and urban infrastructure.
Geography
Home to a plethora of mountains, forests, hills, lagoons, shorelines and lakes not to mention fields and salt marshes, Quy Nhon’s geography is a melting pot for exciting adventures. Interestingly, the city’s coastline also stretches for 42 kilometres and is replete with an abundance of pristine sandy beaches and seafood resources. Those gearing for a stay at one of the uber-luxe Vietnam beach resorts the likes of Avani Quy Nhon Resort are promised a multifaceted experience amidst sandy beaches and the mountains.
Climate
With a year-round warm to hot temperature, one can easily consider Quy Nhon to have a tropical savannah climate. However, the city can also be at the receiving end of heavy typhoons hitting up the coast from time to time.
Economy
Classified as the chief industrial and service centre of Bin Dinh Province, this coastal city hosts an expansive list of economic activities including export imports, seaport services, aquatic product husbandry, tourism and many more.
