The mysterious wall under the sea in Quy Nhon

Mr. Sy, a boat owner in Nhon Hai (Quy Nhon, Binh Dinh) said that for a long time, people had built this wall to block waves from destroying the fishing village. The third lunar month is the season of green moss on the rocky beaches of Phuong Mai peninsula. Every month, only a few days when the water dries up, the new wall becomes visible, especially on the 1st and around the full moon day.
Mr. Sy, a boat owner in Nhon Hai (Quy Nhon, Binh Dinh) said that for a long time, people had built this wall to block waves from destroying the fishing village. The third lunar month is the season of green moss on the rocky beaches of Phuong Mai peninsula. Every month, only a few days when the water dries up, the new wall becomes visible, especially on the 1st and around the full moon day.

The length of the wall extends from Hainan fishing village to Hon Kho During the day, when the water rises, from Nhon Hai looking to Hon Kho is still a vast sea of ​​water. At dusk, the sun gradually turned off, and the new wall appeared. The water here is not too deep, but because of that, it is not possible to run close by canoe, but must go on a rowing boat to reach this unique wall. “Be careful, the rocks are very easy to get hurt,” Sy reminded us when we excitedly put our hands into the clear sea. From the fishing village to the wall, you can only go by rowing boat like Mr. Sy’s boat. Temporarily anchoring the boat to a ledge, Mr. Sy said he could stay here as long as he wanted, until the water dried up completely. We reached the wall on the full moon day, that’s when the water was almost completely drained. If in another season, the solid connections from the rocks will be clearly seen, but now, only a green color of moss is visible. In the morning, the wall is submerged in sea water A few years ago, tourists to Hon Kho were few, and few people knew about the existence of the wall. But now more people come here. In addition to being curious about a mysterious construction on the sea, it is also because it is a very suitable place for “virtual living” photos. The wall rises out of the water in the afternoon The break is said to be the gate of the city for boats to pass through From Quy Nhon city, go across Thi Nai bridge to Phuong Mai peninsula, straight towards Nhon Hai, to Hai Nam fishing village, you can see the wall. But few people come to Nhon Hai without spending a little more time to take a boat out to walk on the strange wall surface. When the tide recedes, the wall is exposed with moss There is no record of an artificial wall in the Nhon Hai area. Ancient records only recorded four great walls built by the Champa people in Binh Dinh, including Thi Nai citadel in Tuy Phuoc district, Do Ban citadel, Chas citadel in An Nhon town, and Uat Tri citadel in Tay Son district. Only the third lunar month has so many mosses Was the wall in Nhon Hai built by man or a miracle of nature? But the people here, including Mr. Sy, believe that it is a legacy of many previous generations. Looking from the Nam Hai fishing village in the direction of the wall to Hon Kho, three distinct segments of the wall are clearly seen. The gaps between the sections are enough for small boats to pass through, which Mr. Sy surmises may have been the gates for ancient ships to pass through. It could simply be a dam built to break waves as Sy guessed, or it could be a defensive work of the Champa people – that mystery is still waiting for an answer. The flora and fauna here are quite interesting Natural grape seaweed is quite abundant here The wall surface is quite wide, about 3-4m, when the water recedes, you can walk comfortably. The wall is about 3 kilometers long. Even at the broken sections, the fishermen said that when the afternoon falls, the water only reaches the neck level, and can swim through easily. If on the full moon day, the tide is at its lowest, from above you can see the full stretch of the wall. Abundant biome in the middle of the sea It is moss season, so the wall is an extremely rich biome. From the Ganoderma lucidum, to the completely natural grape seaweed bushes. Starfish glittering in the water or clownfish hiding among the moss. The wall is now an attractive photography destination for many tourists Pointing to a boat also anchored in the distance, Mr. Sy said that his family had been here since morning until now. They went to Hon Kho, then rowed the boat over the wall, but still attached to this place…
