5 stars for a cross-sea cable car, the views are really pretty, the whole journey is about 20 minutes. Many things on the island are still under construction, only roller coasters, Hawkeyes and water parks. The park can charter an amusement park car, which only costs vnd 500,000 one, around the island for about 45 minutes, however it only has 2 cars, so you have to make a reservation once you enter the park.

Although the driver does not speak English, we can communicate with him using translation software. The driver is very nice. He took us to the original destination, but since we still have time, he took us to another place.
