QUẢNG NGÃI — Many historical and cultural relics, such as ancient temples and mausoleums, make Lý Sơn Island off the coast of Quảng Ngãi highly attractive to visitors.

From Sa Kỳ fishing port in Quảng Ngãi, travellers can take a high-speed boat that takes around two hours to reach the picturesque island, which is also known as the Kingdom of Garlic, since many islanders earn a living by growing the herb.

The island’s attractions include the untapped beauty of Tò Vò Gate and Hang Pagoda, which is located inside a mountain cave. — VNS
