Location: Cu Lao Cham is situated in Tan
Hiep Commnue, 20km from Hoi An in the direction of the East Sea.
Characteristics: Cu Lao Cham consists of eight islets very close to one
another: Hon Lao, Hon Kho Me, Hon Kho Con, Hon Tai, Hon Dai, Hon La, Hon Mo and
Hon Ong.
According to archaeologists, Cu Lao Cham first settled there 3,000 years ago and
established business contacts with external countries some 1,000 years ago. Up
to now, Cu Lao Cham has preserved many architectural constructions which date
back to the 18th – 20th century. They include the shrine dedicated to Than Yen
Sao, built in 1843 at Bai Huong and Hai Tang Pagoda, built in 1753 on the
western hillside of Hon Lao. Still, Cu Lao Cham has more to offer. After a
3-hour canoe trip, one may hop over to the famed Well of the Cham people.
Situated in a salty-water area, this square-bottom well, amazingly, provides
clear fresh water all year round. Enjoyable extras include white-sand, pristine
beaches and captivating attractions evocatively named Bai Ong, Bai Bim, Bai
Chong, Bai Bac, Suoi Tinh, Cau Mo, Suoi Ong and so on, where tourists can relax,
go hunting, fishing even fishing octopuses. Travelers also have chances to view
the sea swallows’ nests clinging to the towering cliff. Cu Lao Cham wins kudos
for its seafood and delicacies (octopuses, lobsters, fish’s fin, abalone, kaki,
hind, chelonian's eggs, birds’ nests…) and fascinating souvenirs (pearls,
conches, tortoise-shells…)
