Nghinh Phong Tower

Nghinh Phong Tower is a contemporary landmark at Nguyen Huu Tho Square on the coast of Tuy Hoa City, Dak Lak Province (formerly Phu Yen Province). Inaugurated in November 2021, the twin-tower structure is inspired by the basalt columns of Ghenh Da Dia and the legend of Lac Long Quan and Au Co. Standing 35 and 30 meters tall with 50 stacked stone blocks, it has become an iconic symbol of the region and winner of the 2023 Asian Townscape Award.

Visitors can expect an open coastal plaza with two distinctive towers formed by stacked hexagonal stone columns, facing the East Sea. The site offers panoramic sea views, open space for walking and photography, and a dramatic LED light and music show after dark. The surrounding square is paved and flat, with direct access to the beachfront promenade and views of Hung Vuong Bridge and Tuy Hoa coastline.

Constructed between 2019 and 2021 and inaugurated in November 2021 as a new symbol for Tuy Hoa and Phu Yen Province (now part of Dak Lak). Designed by Huni Architectes, the project was created to promote local tourism and was honored with the Asian Townscape Award in 2023.

The 50 stone blocks represent the 50 children of the legend of Lac Long Quan and Au Co, with the two towers symbolizing father and mother. The hexagonal columns reference the natural basalt formation of Ghenh Da Dia, a national scenic site, reflecting the region's natural and mythological identity.
