Nestled in the middle of a forest in Ham Ninh Commune under Phu Quoc City, a popular tourist site in the Mekong Delta province of Kien Giang, Tien Stream has become a tourist magnet for young travelers and adventure lovers thanks to its natural beauty.
Tien Stream, together with Da Ban and Tranh mountain springs, is contributing to making Phu Quoc Island more attractive to not only tourists in Vietnam but also foreigners.

To reach the charming stream, tourists must trek along a rocky and rough path in the forest, but they can enjoy the fresh air and the shade of various plants, while admiring colorful flowers.
“The stream sightseeing tour is extremely interesting. The mountain, covered by green healthy trees, creates picturesque scenery,” said tourist Nguyen Thanh Son.
Le Loi Dinh, a tour guide on Phu Quoc Island, said that Tien Stream is one of the most gorgeous springs in Phu Quoc City.
The stream rises in the Ham Ninh mountain range and carries a lot of water in the rainy season.
Large rocks spotted in the stream are fairly flat, acting as seats for travelers to take a rest, admire the landscape, and take photos.
Trekkers can throw a party near the stream.
Taking a bath in the stream helps travelers relax due to clean and cool stream water.
Fish massage, where small fish use their lips to nibble dead skin and cause no damage, is also an exciting experience for tourists.
“Young tourists are keen on stream-watching and trekking tours,” Dinh said.
They feel comfortable and relaxed in fresh air in the middle of such a breathtaking forest on Phu Quoc Island, he added.
Nguyen Van Tiep, director of the Phu Quoc National Park, said that the island is home to a host of stunning streams, so numerous sightseeing tours to these mountain springs have been launched to delight travelers.
