Built in 1899, it is considered as the tallest and oldest existing lighthouse in Vietnam. This lighthouse was designed by a French architect named Chnavat to guide ships to go back and forth. It was built from granite stones brought from France. A unique character of this lighthouse is that the granite stones were carved out of different cells, shapes, sides that are well-fit. So in building, they were put together and stuck by mortar.
On the lighthouse, there is a big light of 2000W, which was brought from France and used to give signals ships back and forth.
