[edit] Tourist destinations
Quảng Ngãi is rarely touched by the booming Vietnamese tourist industry, and as such potential visitors should be aware that English is not spoken at all, and that the limited numbers of hotels are used to dealing only with Vietnamese customers. It also means that the many tourist buses that run the length of Vietnam do not stop in the town, Quang Ngai city can only really be reached by private car, or by rail (excluding 'express' services).
Local attractions include:
- Ba Tơ garden.
- Quảng Ngãi square. (Phạm Văn Đồng street)
- Trà Khúc river.
- Tam Thượng harbor.
- Thien But mountain.
- Đức Lợi - Cửa Lở Beach
Among Quảng Ngãi's beaches, Đức Lợi beach is particularly well known and favored.
Quảng Ngãi city is the nearest major town to the site of the My Lai Massacre.
