Located at Nghinh Phong square at the intersection of Nguyen Huu Tho Street and Doc Lap Avenue (Tuy Hoa city), Nghinh Phong tower is impressively designed, inspired by the iconic Da Dia reef of Phu Yen and the legend “100 eggs, 100 children”

The tower consists of 2 parts, in the middle is a 35m high stone pillar and a 30m high stone pillar, symbolizing Father Lac Long Quan and Mother Au Co; there are 50 stone blocks stacked on top of each other below, symbolizing “100 eggs, 100 children”  following their parents to the mountain and to the sea.

The space created between the two large stone pillars of the tower is a 2m wide, 15m long wind welcoming slot. On the two walls between the two tower bodies are bas-reliefs about the legend of Lac-Hong, the process of building and defending the country of the Vietnamese people.

The entire building is covered with granite slabs - a material with eternal durability, available locally. Equipped with a lighting system combined with Bobine Tesia technology, 3D mapping and high-intensity laser, in the evening, Nghinh Phong tower becomes a place to demonstrate unique light effects.
