Binh Chau Hot Springs

Binh Chau Hot Springs is a natural thermal spring system in Binh Chau Commune, Xuyen Moc District, Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Ba Ria-Vung Tau Province), about 150 km southeast of central Ho Chi Minh City. It features more than 70 open wells with mineral water up to 82°C, set within the Binh Chau - Phuoc Buu Nature Reserve. Notable for therapeutic mineral mud and water baths, spa services and forest surroundings.

Visitors can expect a large resort complex built around natural hot mineral springs within a forested area. The site includes outdoor hot pools of varying temperatures, mud bath areas, spa and wellness facilities, an egg-boiling well where water reaches about 82°C, landscaped gardens, walking paths, restaurants and accommodation. Areas are organized for bathing, relaxation and wellness treatments surrounded by secondary forest of the nature reserve.

The hot springs were first documented in 1928 by French doctor Sallet during a survey of southern Vietnam. The site was later developed as a therapeutic and tourism destination due to its mineral-rich waters, and has been expanded into a resort complex within the Binh Chau - Phuoc Buu Nature Reserve area.

The springs are known locally for traditional therapeutic bathing using mineral water and mud, associated with wellness and health practices. The site is a well-established domestic tourism and wellness destination in southeastern Vietnam.
