Immerse yourself in the tranquility of Con Dao.

If you're tired of the hustle and bustle of crowded cities, then Con Dao is a place that embodies the power of tranquility, a feeling that anyone who visits the island will experience.

Modern conveniences and multi-dimensional technological connectivity have two sides to them, but we easily get caught up in a life burdened with worries. A high-speed ferry from the mainland will take you to this island, where you rarely hear the honking of city cars. Visitors will be completely immersed in the white sounds of nature, such as the wind and waves. Sitting and watching the sea and tasting the wind will have a calming effect on the nervous system, relieving stress. The distinctive salty smell of the sea breeze is released by plankton when attacked by larger organisms. These are truly important because they produce more than 50% of the world's oxygen. That means every second you breathe comes from the sea.

*The slopes at Cape Tau Be are ideal for catching energetic sea breezes, and are not far from the town center.*

*Rock balancing, the art of stacking stones to balance on high hills, is a way to cultivate patience and requires constant mental presence.*

*These century-old banyan trees are witnesses to history. Their leaves were food for thousands of revolutionary heroes who fell here.*

The ancient Terminalia catappa tree extends its branches all the way to the seashore. The gentle sound of waves lapping against the shore at Con Son beach helps the body absorb negative ions, exchange more oxygen, and inhibit cortisol (the stress hormone).

*Hang Duong Cemetery, the burial place of tens of thousands of Vietnamese revolutionary soldiers and patriots.*

*The view from Nhat Beach at Love Peak is one of the most beautiful spots that no one should miss.*

*Con Dao remains a wonderful place where you can truly immerse yourself in tranquility.*

*The western side of the island is perhaps the best place to witness the most spectacular sunsets. The warm light spectrum creates a relaxing atmosphere, immersing you in a sense of peace.*

*Romantic, tranquil, and peaceful—these are the feelings this island evokes in anyone who comes here to rejuvenate their spirit.*
