Lake of Sighs
Hồ Than Thở
A quiet lake surrounded by pines northeast of the city, with a tragic love legend and nearby Twin Tombs Pine Hill.
Lake of Sighs lies about 6 km northeast of the city center. It is a calm lake surrounded by pines. Its name comes from the sound of wind through the pine trees, and it is also linked to a tragic legend about a couple who died together. The lakeside is now a tourist area with gardens, horse-drawn carriages, horse riding and lakeside cafés. Nearby, Twin Tombs Pine Hill (Đồi thông hai mộ) is said to hold the legendary lovers, and many Vietnamese couples visit. Entry costs about 50,000–100,000 VND. It is quieter than Valley of Love, and it is best visited early in the morning, when mist lingers over the lake. It can be arranged on the same eastern route as Linh Phuoc Pagoda.
