Vast expanses of lush rainforests, flora and fauna and limestone landscapes that beckons to all nature lovers.
Ta Cu Mountain is situated in Phan Tiet and is made out of 250,000 square metres of lush rainforests, wildlife, limestone karsts and Buddhist structures. The place is easily accessible from Mui Ne Town - it takes about an hour by car to get there. Travellers can also opt for a two hour hike through the verdant rainforest or a 10 minute cable car ride to reach the very peak of the mountain. The former option is best for those with good stamina as you may need to climb a rather steep stairway to reach the main pagoda. There are smaller shrines and a local restaurant along the way where you can stop by to catch a breather while admiring the breathtaking view before you.

Not forgetting, those vast rice paddies and fruit plantations.
