Vinpearl Land - is a sort of answer from Nha Trang to Disneyland. The amusement park is located on Hon Tre Island, which you reach by a cable car
with a length of 3 km. The theme park has amusement rides (gliders, carousels), an impressive water park, games and lots of other attractions for children. Once you have paid the entrance fee everything is free except Underwater World. This requires additional payment. There are several shows including a dolphin show, which is in the sea next to Underwater World.

Te island of Hon Tre is located in the Nha Trang Bay and attracts mainly domestic tourists. The comparison with Disneyland goes wrong, because it is not so impressive, although you will hear throughout the Disneyland music.
Some attractions are better than others, but there is always something to do for everyone. Some roller coasters rides go completely over the top and it's nice to see what a pleasure the locals can have. There is a mall, 3D cinema, games arcade and performances, such as break dancing groups
By Vietnamese standards, the whole park is quite well run and it’s a rubbish-free place to turn off your mind and stretch your legs without having to worry about being hit by a motorbike.

Sometimes there is a queue for the cable car. On weekends visitors sometimes have to wait an hour. So we can go better on a weekday. The cableway is 3320 meters long and you are floating 60 meters above the sea. The journey takes about 12 minutes. At night, the nine pillars of the cable car are illuminated and they look like nine mini Eiffel Towers.
In the aquarium interested people can see all underwater creatures. There is a tunnel with a swinging, moving footpath. So you can look closely all tropical fish, moray eels, rays and turtles, which swim above your head.

The highlight for many locals is the waterpark. The slides, a lazy river, wave pool and kids splash pad are a great way to cool down from the heat in Nha Trang. The waterpark is included in the admission. There are lockers and change rooms available. There’s a small but lovely beach of clean white sand and blue waters with a view to the city skyline. Watercraft like jet-skis, parasailing and new-fangled water hoverboards can be rented.
Bringing food into the park is prohibited and they do check your bag. Western food is limited to the fast-food restaurant Lotteria, and Vietnamese food is of the rice plus meat and vegetarian variety. Snack stands sell cold drinks, ice cream, beer and fruit. Prices are reasonable and there’s some great oceanfront dining terraces. Overall, Vinpearl Land Nha Trang won’t knock your socks off, but you get what you pay for: a fun day full of amusement.
Vinpearl Land is part of the Vingroup. They manage several hotels in Vietnam. On the southern island of Phu Quoc, located in front of the coast of
Cambodia, they manage a safari park and a hotel. It is there the intention to extend it further on

" Cable car ride fantastic views, very well organised fr start to finish. Lots to do reasonably priced for a whole day outing with all rides included inclusive. Great only need to buy food and drinks which are from very reasonably priced to higher range depending on your choice. Lockers available at a small cost. These proved to be a great choice for us as we went to the water park for most of the day while the weather was warm, then in the afternoon went had a shower got changed and went to the rides."
