ITS TRAVEL NEWS Ly Son a charming natural pearl island 15 nautical miles from Sa Ky Port to the North, Ly Son Island in Quang Ngai Province is known as the natural pearl island for its charming and spectacular white sand and blue sea.

The island s natural beauty attracts both domestic and international travelers. Ly Son Island is also famous for Thoi Loi mountain peak, from which visitors can see the brilliant beauty of the island, with blue sea and skies, green fields of garlic crops, and dark brown wooden architecture. Visitors should not miss the museum showcasing hundreds of valuable documents, photos, and exhibits of Hoang Sa (Paracel) troops, Hoang Sa and Truong Sa (Spratly) archipelagos. Theses exhibits are seen as a token of gratitude to those who fought and sacrificed their lives for the sacred territorial waters of the nation. The items exhibited also affirm Viet Nam s sovereignty over the two archipelagoes. These are invaluable educational materials for the next generations, documenting the history of national construction and protection of former generations. Now visitors can easily reach the island by taking speedboats from Sa Ky Port in Quang Ngai City. Its many temples include Am Linh Tu Temple, dedicated to Hoang Sa soldiers who established Viet Nam s sovereignty over the Hoang Sa and Truong Sa archipelagoes more than 300 years ago.
