Suối Tiên is a cool, funky Vietnamese take on an amusement park. It's got a lot of historical inspirations, and is part amusement, part educational, part spiritual. There are sections based on cultural or historical stories, and some temples to various notables. And then there are ferris wheels, roller coasters and various other rides. There's even a water park. It definitely shows a different culture!

| Tickets - about $1 for kids, $1.60 for adults. |
It seems cheap, and it is, but the amusements are separately purchased, so if you just want to go to the temples and walk the gardens, that's fine. If you want to ride the rides you buy tickets for each one. And really, the rides cost something like 25-50c, so it was really very reasonable.

Tiên Dong beach
This is actually a separate little section with its own entrance fee. My parents didn't feel the need to go in, so we were only in for about an hour.
Do you see the funky swimsuit she has on? It was a rental. Yes, they rent swimsuits there, just in case you hadn't planned ahead. I rented one too. And didn't think about sanitary conditions. Nope, wasn't going there. So it was an interesting thing.
