2. The Beauty Of Dunes

The sandhill of Quang Phu is distinguished by its magical natural beauty. In particular, the pattern of the sand is changed every day by the floating sea breeze that blows all day and night. The color of the sand also changes from day to day based on the changes in sunlight. When the sun is shining, visitors can see pure white and smooth sand that glows bright yellow. At sunset, all turns gray and white.
