Popular Destinations in Vung Tau
Suoi Nghe sheep farm – sheep field in Ba Ria – Vung Tau is one of the best photography destinations rated by the Vietnamese. Suoi Nghe sheep field is the residence of 3 herds of sheep, 150 sheep each. At first, the sheep were raised here just for meat and fiber. However, since more and more people visit the herds for sightseeing and photo-taking, they then raise the sheep to serve as a photography spot for the tourists.
Cha Va River is home to fishermen. This place is where you can find the fishing villages within the country life.
Last but not least, Vung Tau is well-known for its beaches. Here go the top five beaches in Vung Tau.

Vung Tau seems like an interesting place! Do they charge for the photo taking with the sheep though? Hehe. Also, the beach indeed looks amazing and the beachfront is really wide. I wish I can visit Vung Tau one day.
I have been to Vietnam twice, Hochihmin and Hanoi only. Never been to Vung Tau before. It is pretty amazing to see this place is full of surprises. Love the cute sheeps in the sheep farm.
Oh, this is my kinda place, quite, simple, looks like a definite must visit. Never been to Vietnam, should put it on our bucket list.
Thank you for sharing these photographs! Very cool!
I’ve actually visited all these places except for Cha Va River . I would love to visit it someday. I hope it will turn out just as fun as the others.
