Lang Co Bay: A Gateway to Central Vietnam’s Rich Culture and Cuisine

Tucked between the sapphire waters of the East Sea and the forested peaks of the Truong Son Mountain range, Lang Co Bay is fast emerging as one of the most desirable destinations in Central Vietnam. Ideally situated among three UNESCO World Heritage Sites—Hue, Hoi An, and My Son Sanctuary—Lang Co presents a peaceful yet accessible base for exploring the region’s rich cultural heritage, breathtaking landscapes, and celebrated culinary delights.

Highlighting Laguna Lang Co

At the core of this coastal enclave is Laguna Lang Co, which features two of Vietnam’s notable properties, Angsana Lang Co and Banyan Tree Lang Co.

Angsana Lang Co caters to families and active travelers with contemporary suites—many boasting private pools—and a range of recreational activities, from water sports and spa treatments to Vietnamese culinary classes and cultural excursions.

On the other hand, Banyan Tree Lang Co offers a tranquil escape with elegantly appointed villas equipped with private pools and stunning views of either the mountains or the sea. The signature restaurant, Watercourt, serves up authentic Vietnamese cuisine in an elegant ambiance, allowing guests to savor local flavors right at the resort.

A Strategic Base for Cultural Exploration

Lang Co Bay serves as an excellent launch point for various day trips and cultural explorations:

• Hue: Just 90 minutes away, this former imperial capital is rich in royal history. Visitors can discover the Imperial Citadel, take a boat ride on the Perfume River, and visit the noteworthy tombs of the Nguyen emperors. Hue is also famous for its unique dishes, particularly Bún Bò Huế, a spicy beef noodle soup.

• Hoi An: A two-hour drive reveals this UNESCO-listed town, known for its lantern-lit streets, riverside cafés, and historical architecture. It’s also a hub for bespoke tailoring and traditional crafts. Dine at La Table, a French-Vietnamese fusion restaurant created by a French chef who fell for his Vietnamese partner and the region’s flavors.

• My Son Sanctuary: Hidden within the jungle, this ancient Hindu temple complex provides insight into the Champa Kingdom’s spiritual heritage.

• Bach Ma National Park: Perfect for nature lovers, featuring lush trails, waterfalls, and panoramic views—ideal for hikers and wildlife enthusiasts.
