Pig Hill (Doi Con Heo)
Đồi Con Heo
A grassy hillside on the eastern side of Little Mountain overlooking Back Beach, with a newly built viewing trail and the remains of a radar station. It is popular for sunsets and coastal views.
Pig Hill, also known as Jade Sparrow Hill, lies on the eastern foot of Little Mountain, next to the southern end of Back Beach. It takes its name from the shape of the hill, which resembles a pig. The slopes have green grass and an old radar tower, and a trail and viewing platform have been built in recent years. From the top you can see Hon Ba Island, the Back Beach coastline and the whole sea. At sunset, crowds of young people often gather to take photos. Entry is free. It is a 10-minute walk up from the alleys off Phan Chu Trinh Street. It can be combined with Hon Ba Island and Nghinh Phong Cape for a half-day around Little Mountain. The slopes have no shade, so late afternoon is the most comfortable time to visit.
