You may already be familiar with the ancient imperial city of Huế, its grand Imperial City, the unique and impressive tombs of the Nguyễn emperors, and the picturesque Trường Tiền Bridge spanning the tranquil Perfume River... But did you know that Huế has even more to offer? One of the other popular tourist attractions of this historic region is Phá Tam Giang. Come explore it with Mytour now.
Where is Phá Tam Giang located in Huế? How do you get to Phá Tam Giang?
Tam Giang Lagoon, part of the Tam Giang – Cau Hai Lagoon system, spans an impressive 52 square kilometers, stretching across four districts of Thua Thien Hue province, namely Phong Dien, Quang Dien, Huong Tra, and Phu Vang.
Tam Giang Lagoon is also renowned as the largest brackish water lagoon in Southeast Asia, located approximately 12 kilometers from the center of Hue city.
With this distance, getting to Tam Giang Lagoon is quite convenient. From Hue city center, you can opt for a motorcycle ride, hire a car, or take a taxi. However, if it's your first time booking a flight to Hue for tourism, Mytour recommends taking a taxi (especially if you're in a large group) or renting a car with a local driver to avoid getting lost and to save time on the road.
