About Dong Xoai

Dong Xoai is the main city of Binh Phuoc, located north of Ho Chi Minh City on the route toward the Central Highlands and Cambodia borderlands. It is a low-key stop for war history, cashew-country food, local markets, and trips deeper into Binh Phuoc.

💡Why Visit?

Stop for a practical, authentic Binh Phuoc base with local food, history, and easy onward road links.
