The highlight will be a ceremony to receive the national special relic site certificate for Thap Nhan (Nhan Tower) at April 1 Square on the evening of August 14.

Nhan Tower was built by the Cham from the 10th to 13th century at Nhan Mountain on the Ba River side in Tuy Hoa city. It is a quadrangle with four 23.5m high sides.

It is the only Cham tower still intact in the province. An altar inside the tower is a unique architectural Cham feature and one of the few remaining Cham altars.

During the festival, tours will be designed to explore tourism spots in the province and a seminar on connecting Phu Yen tourism and other central south provinces will be held.
