But there are also many islands with large areas, with a large population, and of course very developed in tourism. The biggest one, probably many people know, is Phu Quoc Island, the top tourist destination in Vietnam now. Funnily enough, Phu Quoc No. 2, no one is No. 1. But after Phu Quoc, Phu Quoc may be the names that make you very surprised. Let's find out with that information channel in today's clip. Phu Quoc Island Phu Quoc, also known as Ngoc Island, is the largest island in Vietnam. It is also the largest island among more than 22 islands here, located in Thailand. Phu Quoc Island, along with other islands, created the Phu Quoc Island City, located in Kien Giang province. In 2021, Phu Quoc officially became the first island city of Vietnam. Phu Quoc City was established on the basis of the total population of nearly 180,000 people of Phu Quoc District. According to official information from Phu Quoc City, the area of ​​the island is 573 square kilometers, 50 kilometers in length, the largest place in the north is 25 kilometers. Phu Quoc is located 120 kilometers from Rach Gia City and 45 kilometers from Ha Tien City.

Phu Quoc has long been a famous tourist destination for both domestic and international tourists. When tourism reopened in early 2022, you must have seen how many tourists came to Phu Quoc. During the 9 days of Tet, from January 29 to February 6, Phu Quoc welcomed more than 120,000 tourists, including more than 83,000 passengers by plane, double the number of passengers by ship. If you ask anyone who goes on a trip during this period, the answer is Phu Quoc. This is a place with an international airport and is the only island that meets 4 visa-free conditions for foreigners. These conditions include an international airport, a separate space, a designated geographical border, a separation from the mainland, in line with the policy of social economic development, not harming the national defense, national security, order, and social security of Vietnam.

The real estate in Phu Quoc is extremely good. The latest CNN media company has chosen Phu Quoc as one of the best destinations in Asia. Phu Quoc is estimated to develop significantly, even more than Phuket in Thailand and Bali in Indonesia. This is likely to become the largest tourist development island in Southeast Asia. Previously, every year, Phu Quoc welcomed about 2-3 million tourists. But when the epidemic recovers and tourism returns to normal, it is likely that Phu Quoc will be even more explosive in tourism. 2. Cai Bau Island After Phu Quoc, probably not everyone knows The second place in this list belongs to Cai Bau Island, an island located in Vân Đồn Island and is the largest island here.

The material facilities here have not been built much and there are still many things missing. This place is quite desolate and has almost no specific beach. The terrain here is also not very favorable. However, in the future, this place may develop stronger when invested. Cha Ban has quite a lot of caves. Only one village here has 3 to 5 caves formed over thousands of years to create shaking rocks as noisy as the heavens. In addition, the quiet and quiet can become an advantage for Cha Ban Island compared to other noisy places. 5.
