Overview

Khu du lịch Đại Nam is a vast entertainment complex in Binh Duong province featuring an open-concept zoo, a multi-purpose racecourse, and a man-made beach. The complex houses a prominent temple complex constructed with gold-plated details and intricate wood carvings. The Đại Nam Racecourse is the first of its kind in Vietnam to combine horse racing, go-karting, and jet ski racing on a single site. The zoo is notable for being the first open-style zoo in Vietnam, allowing animals to roam in semi-natural enclosures. The complex is centered around a large artificial saltwater beach with a wave-making system. It functions as a large-scale recreational hub catering to families and local tourists.

Insider tips

Rent a bicycle or use the internal electric shuttle bus to navigate the sprawling site efficiently.

Bring sun protection such as umbrellas and high-SPF sunscreen, as much of the site lacks natural shade.

Check the schedule for specific racecourse event dates before visiting, as these are not held daily.

What to avoid

Attempting to walk the entire perimeter on foot, as the massive scale and extreme heat make pedestrian-only exploration exhausting.

Good to know

The complex is busiest on weekends and public holidays; certain high-thrill attractions may not operate during heavy rainfall.

Etiquette

Maintain modest attire when visiting the temple grounds, covering shoulders and knees.
