Grand World on Phu Quoc, Vietnam looks so much like Venice, Italy that it inspired the title of this video. Dave and Kim tour the colorful gardens, elaborate fountains, and impressive architecture, take a gondola ride with ocean views, and cool off with a refreshing coconut smoothie.

Venice, Vietnam Style

Grand World is a Venice Italy themed attraction on the island of Phu Quoc, recreating the canals, facades, and atmosphere of the famous Italian city in tropical Vietnam. Walking its grounds, it is easy to see why the family posed the question: is this Venice or Phu Quoc?

Gardens, Fountains, Architecture

The tour starts with the park's colorful gardens, elaborate fountains, and impressive architecture, all designed for strolling and photos. It is a relaxed, visually rich stop that contrasts nicely with the high energy theme parks elsewhere on the island.

The Gondola Ride

The highlight of the visit is the gondola ride, which offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape and the ocean beyond. Floating through the canals of a Vietnamese Venice is a genuinely unusual travel moment, and the video captures it from the best seat in the park.

A Slow Travel Stop

After exploring, the family cools down with a coconut smoothie they call simply divine. Grand World suits travelers looking for relaxation and a taste of tropical bliss rather than thrills, and it rounds out a Phu Quoc itinerary alongside VinWonders and the safari park featured in the channel's other island videos.
