Lang Co Bay, VietnamTucked between the sapphire waters of the East Sea and the forested peaks of the Truong Son Mountain range, Lang Co Bay is fast becoming one of Central Vietnam’s most desirable destinations. Ideally situated between three UNESCO World Heritage Sites, Hue, Hoi An, and My Son Sanctuary, Lang Co offers a peaceful yet well-connected base from which to explore the region’s rich cultural heritage, natural beauty, and celebrated cuisine.
