Lý Sơn Island, located in Quảng Ngãi Province, is a favorite place for travelers to enjoy crystal clear waters, large volcanic cliffs and verdant landscapes.

Many have travelled to this island to enjoy the sunrise on Thới Lới Peak – highest of the island’s 5 – where one can get a complete view of the volcanic formation and the white garlic fields which rival the terraces of Sapa.

This video from Vu Le Van captures the island in all its glory (though the soundtrack leaves something to be desired) and for foreigners, it may be as close as you'll get to the real thing since access to the island is restricted to locals due to its military facilities.
