A temple to worship Princess Lieu
Hanh is about 300 metres southwest of the gate. The temple, built in 1557 (the
post-Le dynasty), faces the East Sea. During Tet (lunar traditional New Year
Festival), local fishermen burned incenses at the temple and pray for luck.
When leaving the temple, tourists
can take boats to La Island, where there is a fairy well with transparent and
fresh water all year round.
Tourists can then call at a natural
stone chessboard nearby and sunbathe on extremely beautiful beaches.
La Island is considered "a big
house" for local fishermen. There is an old pagoda called Hang (cave) on
the island built by the locals. The pagoda is a place where fishermen share
their happiness after they capture a great deal of fish and shrimps.
Gio (Wind) Island is located
southeast of La Island. Tourists can get sea snails with strange shapes and
sparkling colours.
To the west of Ngang Pass, tourists
should visit Yen (swallow) Island, where fishermen earn a lot of money from
swallow nets.
Canh Duong fishing village is also
an ideal destination for tourists to enjoy the special dishes of Ngang Pass
such as Ham Duong fish sauce, dried octopus, lobster and swallow’s nests.
