In 2016, a group of backpackers posted some beautiful photos of Diep Son (in Van Thanh Commune, Van Ninh District) on Facebook. Then a lot of travelers in the country, especially young people, have rushed into this desolate island hamlet. Before that, tourists had known some destinations like Mui Doi, Dao Dua, Binh Ba, Binh Hung, etc. by online travel forums.
 
Young people have recently found many strange places to have special experiences, like enjoying Nha Trang view from the peak of Co Tien mountain, hunting clouds on Phuong Hoang mountain, enjoying moonlight on Hon Do valley (by Cu Hin mountain pass), night camping in Hoang Nguu Son (Dong Bo mountain), discovering Hon Tre, etc. These places are not strange to local people, but when seeing their photos on Internet, many people are extremely surprised because they are too beautiful. They are attractive lures to travelers who like new places, staying away from crowded and busy places.
