Quy Nhơn, also written as Qui Nhơn, is a coastal city and fishing port in central Vietnam. Unlike Nha Trang, fewer visitors come here, except for those who have to overnight on their way between Nha Trang and Hoi An. The provincial capital of Bình Định Province, Quy Nhơn has a population of about 290,000 people (2011 estimate).
The Quy Nhơn area has been inhabited since the 11the century, when it was part of the Champa culture. The town of Quy Nhơn was established in the late 19th century. The area is surrounded by forested mountains and rice fields. Taking advantage of its location on the coast, Quy Nhơn has developed its seaport and related industries. It is one of the three main towns along the coastal region, apart from Da Nang and Nha Trang.

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
