Coi Nguon Museum
Bảo tàng Cội Nguồn
Phu Quoc's only comprehensive private museum, displaying the island's archaeological artifacts, folk objects, war relics and marine specimens.
The Coi Nguon (meaning 'roots') Museum was founded by a local collector and is located near the northern section of Long Beach. Its displays include prehistoric and ancient artifacts from Phu Quoc, tools used by fishermen and farmers, ceramics, coins, relics from the French and Vietnam War periods, and marine shell specimens. Together they give a fairly complete picture of the island's history and folk traditions. The building is small, and a visit takes about an hour. It is a good indoor option on rainy days. Admission is cheap (confirm on site). It can be visited on the same day as the sunset at Long Beach.
