Sunset Town & the Kiss Bridge

A Mediterranean-style resort town built for the sunset

Sunset Town is a new resort town built by Sun Group on the south-west coast near An Thoi, in a deliberately Mediterranean style: pastel-painted houses climbing the hill, a clock tower, piazzas and seafront cafés. It is not an old village but a development designed for visitors, and it is at its liveliest in the late afternoon and evening, when people come for the sunset and the shows.

Its landmark is the Kiss Bridge (Cầu Hôn), two curving walkways that stretch out over the sea from opposite sides and stop a short gap apart — the “kiss” is left to the people standing at the tips. In the evenings, open-air shows on the seafront combine music, lights, water effects and fireworks; the names, schedule and ticket prices change, so check the current programme.

What to see and do: Sunset Town & the Kiss Bridge

Watch the sunset from the Kiss Bridge

Arrive at least an hour before sunset: access to the bridge may be timed or ticketed, and the best spots at the tips fill quickly.

See an evening show

The evening shows with fireworks are the main event. Some tickets include dinner; seated areas sell out at weekends and holidays. Compare show tickets and dinner options.

Wander the streets and the clock tower

The pastel lanes are made for photographs. Daytime is quieter and hotter; late afternoon has the best light.

Combine with the cable car

The Hon Thom cable car station is right next door, so many visitors spend the day on Hon Thom and the evening in Sunset Town.
