Travel Attraction: So Ray In Con Dao Island
So Ray is located in Con Dao Island, just 15 – minute drive from the heart of Con Dao. So Ray is not only a kingdom of monkeys but also a historical site where the French forced independence fighters and supporters to perform hard labour in the farms, including growing crops to produce food for their French rulers before 1945.
In 2002, the management of Con Dao National Park developed 20 hectares of endemic and rare trees to create a habitat and a source of natural food for wild animals such as black squirrels, long – tailed monkeys, lizards and other distinctive creatures of the island off Ba Ria – Vung Tau Province.
A watch tower at So Ray is a supreme position for visitors to have an astonishing panoramic view of Con Dao Municipality and its turquoise sea and nearby beautiful islands. The sea breeze helps eradicate the tiredness away from trekkers after over an hour walking up to So Ray.
It usually takes half a day to visit So Ray for those who do not have much time. However, it is also worth giving this green area a little more time as besides feeding monkeys and the spectacular views, travellers can chat with forest rangers of Con Dao National Park and listen to their stories about So Ray and Con Dao of old.
