Mui Ne (Phan Thiet City, Binh Thuan) is a tourist destination that attracts a lot of tourists on holidays. The highlight is the road stretching along the embankment of Mui Ne sea. This is not only the “resort capital” but also a place for dining, entertainment and shopping. However, over the past time resorts and restaurants along the roads along the coast of Mui Ne such as Nguyen Dinh Chieu, Huynh Thuc Khang fell into a slump. The reason is that since the outbreak of Covid-19, the main source of tourists of these establishments is Russians, Koreans, Chinese … unable to travel to Vietnam. Ms. Do Thi Thanh Oanh (33 years old) has been in business for 13 years in Mui Ne. Ms. Oanh said that for more than a year, it is very difficult to maintain the operation of the restaurant. She has to reduce staff, each employee works 15 days per month because there are no customers. The staff in the restaurant of Ms. Oanh took advantage of painting and repairing the roof, installing more light bulbs to prepare guests for the holidays of April 30 to May 1. “Since the beginning of 2021, the number of visitors has increased significantly on weekends,” said Ms. Oanh. Nguyen Dinh Chieu Street (Ham Tien Ward), dubbed the “West Street” of Phan Thiet, fell into a deserted state for more than a year. “Before, this street did not seem to sleep. Restaurants and bars were open until 2-3am, always crowded with customers”, a restaurant owner shared. Many coastal huts also fell into a situation with no customers and losses, so they were dismantled. Ms. Thanh Huong, manager of a restaurant on Huynh Thuc Khang Street, said she has high expectations for tourists during the holidays of April 30 to May 1. “This is one of the long holidays in the year, I hope the epidemic does not go bad for Mui Ne to return to like 2 years ago,” said Huong. Huong’s restaurant also prepares more fresh seafood for sale during the holiday season. “Every month, it costs 20 million dong to rent premises, we maintain the restaurant just waiting for the holidays so we can pay back the capital,” said Huong. The scene was quiet and quiet on Nguyen Dinh Chieu street when a series of hotels, bars, souvenirs were closed and the ground was returned.

Apricot is known by many different names, being the Japanese cherry blossom, the cherry bean tree or the fake cherry tree. This plant is quite similar to cherry blossoms, but the difference is that apricot beans are adorned with a slight pink color, double leaves, and green and white. In many parts of the world, apricot beans are also grown as green runways to prevent fire and wind. Tourists take pictures on the “road of apricot flowers” in Phan Thiet In the coastal city of Phan Thiet, through the Lunar New Year, bright pink apricot branches flooded the road again. The beauty of apricot flowers is even more prominent thanks to the blue color of Mui Ne Bay, combined with the golden sand stretching along the road from the center of Phan Thiet city to Hon Rom tourist area. Not only does it have a shimmering pink color, but the apricot petals on the beach city also make visitors fall in love with the gentle and elegant fragrance. The apricot flowers were planted not long after the coastal road of Vo Nguyen Giap came into operation. The route has a starting point at Nguyen Thong roundabout (Phu Hai ward) and ends at Nguyen Huu Tho roundabout (Mui Ne ward). This 16 km long road is considered the most beautiful in Binh Thuan when winding around the romantic coast of Mui Ne Bay. Along the two sides of the road, there appeared many new urban areas interspersed with tourist areas north of Phan Thiet. The famous landmarks located on the “road of apricot flowers” checked-in by many tourists are Mui Ne sand hill, Wine castle …
