Relics of Tam Toa church and Tam Toa parish
Before being a vestige with a piece of architecture left as it is now, the Tam Toa church used to be one of the most beautiful churches in Vietnam. But now, the church only has a brick pillar and a bell tower because, during the war in the past, the church was destroyed by bombs and bullets. Up to now, although only one piece remains, this place has been carefully preserved.

Nhan Trach fishing village
Fishing villages have long become the traditional culture of people in all three regions, so coastal villages still have an attraction for tourists.
Although located in the Bo Trach district, Nhan Trach fishing village is not too far from Dong Hoi, visitors can visit easily. The attraction here comes from the “faraway boats” with all colors returning at dawn, the peaceful sunrise over the sea or the fishermen talking about their catch or daily life. The sound of pulling fish ashore was mixed with the sound of people talking and the sound of waves crashing in the sky. Here, many tourists take advantage of getting up early without spending much effort, the images of fishermen pushing baskets of fish on the beach early in the morning, boats quietly on the waves create an unforgettable scene for visitors.

When coming to the sand dunes, visitors will feel like getting lost in the vast desert with consecutive sand dunes stretching endlessly. The difference of Quang Phu sand dune compared to other sand dunes is that the sand grains are changed hourly by the sea breeze blowing day and night and the color of the sand is also changed. Quang Phu Sand Dunes is an ideal photography location for young people looking for a unique backdrop for the “thousand hearts” check-in photo set. One more interesting point, from the top of the dune, we can both watch the sunrise and sunset, which is very rare in attractions.

Jumping rock
Farther than the sand dunes is a jumping rock beach about 25 kilometers from the city center, after passing Ngang Pass, you will come to this rocky beach. This place is indeed a sculpture of the sea and one of the beautiful beaches in Quang Binh has white sand with unique shaped rock populations. Seen from afar, the rock beach dances with yellow-toned stones that blend with the waves like a picture. The small rocks protruding on the fine sand look like strangely shaped animals, the water undulating with each wave of the sea.
