Vung Tau, Vietnam

Vung Tau, known under the French regime as Cap Saint Jacques, is a beach resort located about 128 kilometers southeast of Ho Chi Minh City. French colonists first came here more than 100 years ago. The countryside is dotted with villas of the current regime's elite. Vung Tau Peninsula has two mountains, known simply as Small and Large Mountain, and a number of interesting religious sites around town. The most noticeable is the huge statue of Christ blessing the South China Sea.
