One place I want to visit
I really hope that this time I can post my real article after dealing with some silly mistakes or maybe I am so slow to learn this. ![]()
Well, the other I met my SIT friends who told me some fun stories about their trips. Sadly, soon we would say goodbye because of the end of their semester. A day after we would have a farewell party. I hope it would be fun. Hmm, of course I would take photos which is my favorite hobby.
On this article, I am writing about the first place where I want to visit. It is the CON DAO island which are an archipelago of Bà Rịa–Vũng Tàu Province, in southeastern Vietnam, and a district of this province. Situated at about 185 km from Vũng Tàu and 230 km from Hồ Chí Minh City, the group includes 16 mountainous islands and islets. The total land area reaches 75.15 km² and the local population is about 5,000.
What I am concerning about now is the transportation which are planes and boats.
Below is the plane used to fly from HCMC or Vung Tau Province to Con Dao island. I think it will be the same to the plane which carried me when I got back from Phu Quoc island to HCMC. The plane was noisy and small and man! it was so cold inside.
The only airport in Con Dao is Co Ong located in Con Son island

The airplane ticket will probably around 800.000VND and it will take about 1hr to get there
As for the boat, I probably will pay around 200.000VND to share a boat with more than 350 other people in more than 12hrs onboard
But, after a long onboard trip seeing the significant sceneries of Con Dao, I will stay at a quiet and lovely small town where a friend of mine is living and is my guide for free. Those are taken by my friends. I really want to go there even some of my friends said there is nothing interesting there to enjoy. They think there are only prisons there but they don’t know that how beautiful the island is. I do not prefer the sea or ocean though.
