Viet Nam's first sea-crossing cable car system, linking Nha Trang beach city to Vinpearl Land resort in central Khanh Hoa province, was inaugurated and put into operation on March 10.

The 3,320m cable car line, the longest in the world, was built with a total cost of over 13 million Euros.

The system is capable of carrying 1,500 passengers per hour from the mainland to Hon Tre island. Tourists will be able to enjoy a unique view from the cable car during the nine minute ride.

The Hon Tre Trade and Tourism Ltd Company, an investor of the Vinpearl Land resort, plans to build more high-grade hotels and spas, a water-park, a villa complex and an 18-hole golf course capitalised at 300 billion VND in the resort.
