Bao Dai’s villa tourist area, also called Cau Da villa, is situated in Chut mountain, about 6km from the central city of Nha Trang. It has opened an exhibition area for tourists.

The exhibition area belongs to the Nginh Phong building, where king Bao Dai and queen Nam Phuong Hoang went to Nha Trang with many original objects such as the dressing table and images of 13 kings in the Nguyen dynasty.

There is also a room for tourists to put on clothes of the king and the queen to take photos. Tourists also can enjoy dishes, according to the king’s style with royal rites.

Bao Dai’s Villa is a remaining French colonial architecture which was built during the decade of the 1920s. This was a relaxing place for Bao Dai, the last King of Viet Nam and Queen Nam Phuong. From 1950 to 1975 the site became the holiday resort of Sai Gon Government’s high officers. After the country was unified and independent, this palace was utilized by the leaders of Center Government Committee to stay when coming to work in Nha Trang.
