Ho May Park & Cable Car
Khu du lịch Hồ Mây (Núi Lớn)
Ride a cable car up Big Mountain to a hilltop park with temples, lakes, rides and citywide views. It makes a good half-day outing for families.
Ho May Park (Cloud Lake Park) sits on the summit of Núi Lớn (Big Mountain). From the foot of Tran Phu Street, the cable car takes about 10 minutes to reach the top, with views over the bay of Front Beach along the way. On the mountain you'll find two lakes, one upper and one lower, a Buddhist temple with a giant Guanyin statue, gardens, an animal area, and rides including a roller coaster and water slides. At night there are light shows and performances. Tickets include the round-trip cable car and cost roughly several hundred thousand Vietnamese dong for adults (check official prices). Allow 3 to 4 hours. The summit gets strong sun, so bring sunscreen.
