Essentials

City
Quy Nhon was the Class-1 coastal city and capital of Binh Dinh, on a peninsula between National Route 1 and the South China Sea. On 1 July 2025 it was dissolved. Binh Dinh was merged into Gia Lai, and the old city became five wards (Quy Nhon, Quy Nhon Dong, Quy Nhon Tay, Quy Nhon Nam, Quy Nhon Bac) plus Nhon Chau island commune. Phu Cat airport and Dieu Tri station still serve the coast. 1 2 3 4
Population
The 18 April 2025 provincial briefing lists Quy Nhon ward 129,326 people (21.78 km2), Quy Nhon Nam 73,296 (36.36 km2), Quy Nhon Bac 45,746 (23.70 km2), Quy Nhon Tay 24,859 (118.63 km2), Quy Nhon Dong 47,067 (81.97 km2) and Nhon Chau 2,350 (3.62 km2), about 322,600 people on 286.06 km2. English Wikipedia now describes only the central ward (129,326 in 2025). 2 1
Internet Speed
The Ookla Vietnam median fixed download was 360.79 Mbps in August 2026 (country figure; a Quy Nhon table did not load). Unlimited broadband of 60 Mbps or faster is about ₫190,000 a month (Numbeo, last update 1 August 2026). 6 5
Currency & Banking
Vietnamese dong (VND). The country-prep Vietcombank selling rate is ₫26,100 per US dollar on 19 October 2026. Cash is still normal outside card venues. Declare cash over ₫15 million or USD 5,000. 17 16 7
Tap Water
Not for drinking; use bottled or filtered water. A large bottle (Numbeo 50 oz) is about ₫15,000 (last update 1 August 2026). 7 5
Power
About 200 V at 50 Hz. power-plugs-sockets.com lists types A, C and D and dual 110/220 V in some sockets. Carry a multi-type travel adapter. 8 9
SIM Card
Viettel, Vinaphone and MobiFone sell physical SIMs; airport counters are usually marked up, and Phu Cat had no SIM counter as of April 2026, so buy in town. A Quy Nhon plan with calls and 10GB+ data is about ₫155,000 a month (Numbeo, last update 1 August 2026). 8 4 5
Banking for Expats
Local and international banks, with ATMs widely available. You generally cannot send money abroad from a Vietnamese account unless the recipient is family; Wise, MoneyGram and Western Union are the usual outward routes. Foreigners cannot buy land; leased land-use rights run up to 50-70 years. 7
Accommodation
Numbeo (last update 1 August 2026) puts a one-bedroom at about ₫7.67 million a month in the centre and ₫5.33 million outside. A furnished 42 m2 one-bedroom at Ecolife Riverside, Dien Bien Phu, is listed from ₫4.5 million a month. 5 22
Cashless Friendly
Mixed. Grab takes in-app payment. Beach seafood places and the produce markets are still cash. Declare cash over ₫15 million or USD 5,000. 18 4 16
Short Term Rentals
Ecolife Riverside on Dien Bien Phu lists a furnished 42 m2 one-bedroom from ₫4.5 million a month. Survey medians are higher: about ₫7.67 million in the centre and ₫5.33 million outside (Numbeo, last update 1 August 2026). 22 5
Budget Accommodation
Wikivoyage still names Life's a Beach and Haven in the fishing hamlet of Bai Xep, about 10 km south, and Avani Quy Nhon Resort on the same cove. The dollar rates on that page are not dated 2026, so no current nightly price is given. 4
Best Area to Stay for Tourists
The beach along Xuan Dieu and An Duong Vuong, for the promenade and the seafood places on Tran Duc. For a quieter cove, Bai Xep is about 10 km south. Ky Co on the Phuong Mai peninsula is a day trip, not a base. 4
Best Area to Stay for Digital Nomads
Nguyen Tat Thanh and Le Duan, beside Co.opmart, for daily errands. Hestia, the workspace cafe, is at 52 Chuong Duong in Nguyen Van Cu (Quy Nhon Nam). A furnished 42 m2 one-bedroom at Ecolife Riverside on Dien Bien Phu starts at ₫4.5 million a month. 20 22 4

Working and Networking

Best Coworking Space
No operator published a 2026 day pass or monthly desk. Hestia Cafe and Workspace, 52 Chuong Duong, Nguyen Van Cu (now Quy Nhon Nam ward), is open 07:00-22:00 every day; the listing puts drinks in a ₫1-100,000 range and recent reviews mention fast Wi-Fi. 20
Best Cafe for Work
Hestia Cafe and Workspace, 52 Chuong Duong, Nguyen Van Cu, open 07:00-22:00 daily, with air conditioning. A matcha, salt coffee and banana bread were named in reviews from the last month. No separate desk fee was listed. 20
Social Events for Expats
Wikivoyage says the city has no bar scene and most places close by 22:00. The foreigner cluster it describes is the Bai Xep cove, about 10 km south, around Life's a Beach and Haven. 4

Transportation

Best Taxi/Ride App
Grab covers cars and bikes. A taxi start is about ₫20,000 (Numbeo, last update 1 August 2026). Wikivoyage, as of 2023, puts a trip inside the city at ₫20,000-50,000. Phu Cat to town is about 30 minutes and ₫350,000-450,000 by taxi, or ₫100,000 on the flight shuttle to 1 Nguyen Tat Thanh. 18 5 4
Bike/Scooter Rental
Rewire (updated 9 October 2026) puts monthly motorbike hire at USD 40-50, about ₫1.04-1.31 million at ₫26,100 per USD. Wikivoyage says hotels rent bikes at about ₫100,000 a day. A Vietnamese licence is required for bikes of 50cc or more. 19 4 7
Best Beach Nearby
The city beach promenade runs about 5 km along Xuan Dieu and An Duong Vuong. Bai Xep, a fishing cove about 10 km south, is the quiet beach Wikivoyage recommends. Ky Co, on the Phuong Mai peninsula, is the cliff cove with the large Buddha; reach it by motorbike over Thi Nai bridge. 4
Top Regional Airline
Phu Cat Airport (IATA UIH on OpenStreetMap), about 30 km northwest, is served by Vietnam Airlines, VietJet Air, Bamboo Airways and Pacific Airlines, with flights to Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. As of April 2026 the terminal had no ATM and no SIM counter. The flight shuttle is ₫100,000 and about 45 minutes to 1 Nguyen Tat Thanh. 1 4 30
Top International Airline
Vietnam Airlines is the flag carrier. Phu Cat's published services are domestic, to Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, so an international ticket connects there. A 2026 foreign-carrier timetable for UIH was not opened. 1 4
Highway Access
Highway 1D runs south along the coast to Nha Trang, about 220 km. Highway 1 north to Hoi An is about 290 km, slower where it passes through villages. The long-distance bus station is on Tay Son, at the southwest edge of town. 4
Main Train/Transit Hub
Reunification Express trains stop at Dieu Tri station (OpenStreetMap name Diêu Trì). Wikivoyage puts it about 13 km northwest, in Tuy Phuoc commune (not the old city station off Ly Thuong Kiet, which Wikipedia says was suspended in May 2016). Wikivoyage (updated November 2023) lists buses T4, T7 and T12, a Grab bike at about ₫60,000 and a Grab car at about ₫150,000. Journey times on that page: Da Nang about 6 hours, Nha Trang about 4 hours, Ho Chi Minh City about 13 hours. Seat61's fare table does not name Dieu Tri; book the live fare. 4 1 29 24
Public Transport Passes
City buses are cash. Wikivoyage lists single tickets from ₫5,000 (T5, about 10 km) up to ₫39,000 (T12). Numbeo puts a one-way ticket at ₫10,000 and a monthly pass at ₫150,000 (last update 1 August 2026). No operator-published monthly pass was opened. 4 5
Regional Travel
Phu Cat is about 30 km northwest and Dieu Tri is the long-distance train stop. The bus station is on Tay Son, at the southwest edge of town. Wikivoyage (updated July 2024 for the station) says Son Tung runs buses to Da Nang through the day; its November 2023 guide price for Da Nang is ₫350,000 and 6-9 hours, and Saigon is 12-15 hours with no fare on that page. 4

Culture and Attractions

Local Markets
The central market on Ton Duc Thang, between Nguyen Cong Tru and Truong Chinh. Cho Dam, the covered market on Hoang Hoa Tham. The fish market is on Pham Ngoc Thach, busiest early morning and late afternoon. 4

Religious Sites
Long Khanh Pagoda, 141 Tran Cao Van: the present hall dates from 1956, entry free, open morning to evening. OpenStreetMap lists the cathedral as Nhà Thờ Nhọn (Nhà thờ chính tòa) at 122 Trần Hưng Đạo. Wikivoyage says the parish began in 1892 and it became the diocese seat in the 1930s. 4 32
Annual Events
The Quang Trung Museum holds a martial-arts programme on 5 January, the anniversary of the 1789 Ngoc Hoi battle. Wikivoyage also describes a biannual Binh Dinh martial-arts festival started in 2006. A 2026 date for that festival was not opened. 4
Cultural Districts
The Xuan Dieu beachfront and the market streets around Ton Duc Thang and Cho Dam. Tay Son, about 44 km west, is the Quang Trung museum town. Thap Doi sits on Tran Hung Dao at the northwest edge of the centre. 4
Music Scene
Cafes, not venues. Wikivoyage says there is no bar scene, one small nightclub, and that most places close by 22:00. No 2026 live-music bill was opened. 4
Historic Buildings
Nhà Thờ Nhọn (Nhà thờ chính tòa), 122 Trần Hưng Đạo, is the Catholic church on OpenStreetMap. Wikivoyage calls it Quy Nhon Cathedral and puts the spire at 47 m. The municipal offices at 30 Nguyen Hue, corner of Le Loi, are the stern civic block beside the museum. 4 32
Local Heritage
Binh Dinh martial arts, staff fighting and empty-hand, with statues along the beach promenade. The Cham capital Vijaya stood inland; Thap Doi is the tower pair in town. The Tay Son brothers, including Emperor Quang Trung, came from Tay Son, about 44 km west. 4 1

Health and Wellness

Yoga & Wellness Centers
Watpo Yoga Centre, 105F Hai Ba Trung, is the yoga and spa Wikivoyage names. A 2026 class price was not on that entry, and the place is not named on OpenStreetMap. 4
Gyms & Fitness Centers
A monthly fitness-club fee is about ₫445,000 (Numbeo range ₫390,000-500,000, last update 1 August 2026). No independent gym with its own 2026 tariff was confirmed. 5

Food and Drink

Best Food Delivery App
Grab (Do an) is the app that also covers rides. An inexpensive restaurant meal is about ₫50,000 (Numbeo, last update 1 August 2026). 18 5
Best Local Dish to Try
Bun cha ca (fish-cake noodles), banh xeo tom nhay (small shrimp pancakes) and banh it la gai (sticky rice in gai leaf) are the local dishes. Wikivoyage names Phuong Teo Bun Cha Ca at 211 Nguyen Hue and Gia Vy banh xeo at 118 Dong Da and 14 Dien Hong; the dong prices on that page are not stamped 2026. An inexpensive restaurant meal is about ₫50,000 (Numbeo). 1 4 5
Vegan/Vegetarian Options
Thanh Tam, 41 Ngo May, is a vegetarian restaurant one block south of Minh Tinh pagoda. Wikivoyage lists a set lunch of vegetables, rice and soup at ₫15,000; that price is not stamped 2026. Several more vegetarian kitchens sit beside Long Khanh pagoda on Tran Cao Van. 4
Best Dessert Spots
Banh Kem Ngoc Nga, 319-323 Le Hong Phong, is the large bakery Wikivoyage describes, with matcha and tiramisu cakes and a vegan counter. Cake prices on that page (about ₫60,000-400,000) are not stamped 2026. 4
Affordable Shopping Spots
Co.opmart, 7 Le Duan, with the entrance on Nguyen Tat Thanh, is open 08:00-20:00. Big C and CGV are in Kim Cuc Plaza on Highway 1D in Ghenh Rang, now Quy Nhon Nam ward. 4
E-commerce/Online Store
Shopee Vietnam (shopee.vn) is the main local marketplace for everyday goods. 26
Grocery Delivery
Grab (Di cho) lists grocery delivery in the Vietnam app. Co.opmart, 7 Le Duan, is the central supermarket, open 08:00-20:00. 18 4
Bar/Nightlife Area
The evening strip is the open-air seafood places on Tran Duc, across from the Xuan Dieu promenade, especially near Phan Dang Luu. Wikivoyage says there is no bar scene and most places close by 22:00. 4
Street Food Stalls
Seafood stalls cook on Tran Duc opposite the beach promenade. Banh xeo clusters on Dien Hong (Gia Vy 2 at 14 Dien Hong) and around Cho Dam on Hoang Hoa Tham. The central produce market is on Ton Duc Thang. 4
Popular International Cuisine
Buratino, 380D Nguyen Thai Hoc, is the pizza and pasta place Wikivoyage names, open until 23:00. Dishes on that page run about ₫50,000-100,000 and are not stamped 2026. 4

Nature and Outdoor Activities

Nearby Nature Escapes
Bai Xep, about 10 km south, and the empty beaches on the Phuong Mai peninsula, including Ky Co. Banh It Cham towers sit on a hill about 17 km northwest, by the Highway 1 and Highway 19 junction, on the way to the airport. 4
National Parks Nearby
Kon Ka Kinh National Park, 417.8 km2, was established on 25 November 2002. Its centre is about 50 km northeast of Pleiku, and Pleiku is about 160 km west of Quy Nhon, so this is an inland trip, not a city afternoon. OpenStreetMap names the reserve Vườn quốc gia Kon Ka Kinh. 25 37 4
Cycling/Walking Paths
The maintained walk is the beach promenade, about 5 km along Xuan Dieu and An Duong Vuong, often nearly empty. The centre to the beach is a 20-30 minute walk; end to end along the shore is about 90 minutes. 4
Scenic Viewpoints
The coast road over the hills between the city and Bai Xep. On the Phuong Mai peninsula, Eo Gio and Ky Co look over the cliffs, with the 30 m golden Buddha Wikivoyage dates to 2014. A current entrance fee for Eo Gio was not opened. 4
Birdwatching Locations
Đầm Thị Nại is a lagoon on OpenStreetMap. Kon Ka Kinh, inland near Pleiku, was the site of a 1999 BirdLife sanctuary project before it became a national park. A 2026 city bird list was not opened. 36 25
