Names and descriptions of districts in Nha Trang
- European Quarter: a bustling area (complete silence comes after 1 am) with famous discos, restaurants and bars, where the port is located, as well as a cable car that leads to the hotel “Vinpearl”. It is worth noting that, despite the muddy sea water (it is not dirty - the peculiarity of the water is due to the flow of a river into the sea, which carries particles in the form of sand and silt), you can swim here.
- Vinh Diem Trung: despite some distance from the center, this area is interesting for its proximity to large shops and the availability of inexpensive housing.
- Ngokhiep: those who want to improve their health, restore the nervous system and get rid of some skin diseases - this is possible thanks to the wellness procedures that are carried out here using water from a mineral spring.

Where to stay for tourists
For tourists, in particular, active tourists, the European Quarter (tourist area) is excellent - here you should pay attention to “Seaand sun” (from here you can quickly and conveniently get to the airport) and “Diamond bay”. As for inexpensive hotels, you should look for them near Tran Phu Street and along Bien Thu.
It is worth noting that the convenience of living in the European Quarter is due to the fact that tourist buses and minivans from other Vietnamese resorts often arrive in this quarter (you do not have to get to the hotel on the checkpoints or spend time searching for the area).
