Timeline
17:13
Arrive and find a spot near the concrete beach. The park opens at 07:30 so it is wide open. Use the first half hour to walk the area and let the golden light hit the waterfalls and the zoo structures. It is a bit concrete-heavy but the light makes it soft.
17:43
Stay put for the golden hour. The sun is setting toward the WNW. The light will wash over the park, turning the concrete beach and the surrounding greenery warm and bright. This is the best time for photos before the evening shadows take over.
17:58
Wind down as the light fades. The park closes at 17:00 in the winter but at 17:00 it is still open in July. Check the specific date for closing time. Enjoy the cooling air and the quiet as the tourists leave.
Local tip
The park is 40 km west of Nha Trang. Plan your transport back carefully as the last entry is at 17:00 in some seasons. In July it stays open later. Bring water as there are few shops inside.
Check before you go
- Park hours are 07:30 - 17:00. Verify if this extends in July.
- Entry is 100 000 dong for adults.
