Dinh Cau Temple

This combination temple and lighthouse was built in 1937 to honor Thien Hau, the Goddess of the Sea, who provides protection for sailors and fishers. Sometimes called a "castle," or "rock temple" for the rocky outcrop it clings to, Dinh Cau gives you a good view of the harbor entrance. The promenade is popular with locals taking a stroll at sunset.
