nha trang oceanography institute |
The Institute was founded in 1923, on the large tract of waste
land next to the port Cau Da. The laboratory, research room, library and store house,...
these all make a large compound of high buildings, the structure of
which is in perfect harmony with the surrounding slopes poetically
named the "Dragon dancing over the waters", crowned with the green
foliage that provides restful shades.
|
From the Liberation Day (1975) up to the present, along with other
meaningful scientific studies, the Institute has conducted many
researches. The effects of this cooperative work have been
far-reaching contributing much to the prosperity of the country.
About ten kilometers off the coast of Khanh Hoa Province, especially
within the confine of Nha Trang sea region, is the home of sea
wallows that build their nests there, this brings huge profits from
the exploitation of the swallows'nests that has become a century-old
business operation of local people. |
|
Recent announcements made by the
Institute of the result of the research on the life of these
swallows, however modest, are considered very interesting and
meaningful to the economic prospect of the region.
Once in Nha Trang visitors will be impressed with the breathtaking
of the blue rolling sea and the azure soaring sky, a visit to the
Oceanography Institute will show a wide collection of rare patterns
of sea life, which presents the long work of half a century. Among
these can strange corals of tree-form and varied colours, crabs,
oysters, shrimps, pearls of enormous size, sea snakes of numerous
sorts, whales, sharks...be seen.
There are other special species
from tropical seas as well. Quite a hugely resourceful package of
knowledge for you, visitor with a heart to love and a keen mind to
know more on your welcome visit to Nha Trang Oceanography Institute
and this beautiful city.
