About Phan Rang

Phan Rang (officially Phan Rang-Tháp Chàm) is the coastal capital of Ninh Thuận Province, recognized as the spiritual heart of the Cham culture in Vietnam. Located in Vietnam's driest region, the city features towering Cham towers like Po Klong Garai, vast grape orchards, and beautiful local beaches like Binh Son. It is a culturally rich, sun-drenched coastal capital off the beaten tourist path.

💡Why Visit?

Climb the grand 13th-century Po Klong Garai Cham towers and tour lush grape and neem orchards.
