Located right next to Ca Ty river, Phan Thiet water tower is considered to be the symbol of Binh Thuan province. It was designed by Prince Shouphanouvong of Laos - who, at that time, was the chief engineer of Nha Trang Public Works (and later became President of Laos). Built since 1928 and finished in 1934, Phan Thiet water tower has stood there for over a hundred year, witnessed many changes and development of the coastal city.
