province in central Vietnam.

The cape is called Varella after the French man who discovered it

The French built a light house here in 1890. It operated
well until 1945 and resumed operation in 1961. However, Dai Lanh-Vung Ro was a
coastal military base during the Vietnam War, when it welcomed nameless ships
that carried weapons for the southern battlefield. the light house was closed
until 1997.

The Dai Lanh light house is 26.5 meter high from the ground
and 110m over the sea level. The house has 110 wood-made stairs. The light can
be seen from a distance of 27 nautical miles. This is one among 45 national
light houses in Vietnam.

On the road to Dai Lanh cape, visitors see a beautiful and
peaceful beach, which is named Bai Mon, with white and smooth sand washed
bygentle waves,.

Standing in the light house one can enjoy the vast view of the
sea.
