Mui Ne Beach, Mui Ne, Phan Thiet, Vietnam
Fairy Spring aka Hong Spring (Red Spring) is a beauty spot in Mui Ne of Phan Thiet City. Phan Thiet has been well-known for immense sand dunes and wonderful beaches. However, there is a scenic landscape less known by many tourists. It is Fairy Spring, a second-to-non spring in Vietnam. Fairy Spring comes from the underground water streams of sand dunes stretching from provincial highway 706.

For a long time, the water bag was "leaked" and flows outwards, and formed this spring. This spring is seen as a magical and mysterious thing. The local people believe that the Nature bestowed this place. The name Fairy Spring originated from this strange.
Fairy Spring is just a little water stream murmuring next to Hon Rom Island, hidden behind "sunburned" sand dunes. An extremely prominent space is described by the red color of sand, the formation of undulating rough stalactites beside the spring… Thousands of stalactites formed from sand, over the years, become as hard as stones.
