Pier 914

Regarding the history of the pier construction, there has been no document to determine the exact commencement date so far. It is only known that in 1874, the  Pier was already formed, with 120 meters long, 4 meters wide, and a sketch of  107 meters, from the edge in front of the gate of the Lord Palace straight to Con  Son Bay. People call the Pier by the numbers 871; 914; 915 to commemorate the number of people who had died during the construction of the Pier. Those numbers are more or less approximate. The Pier relic is located close to Ton Duc  Thang Street, opposite the Island Lord Palace. There is Cong Quan House on the left and Ton Duc Thang Park on the right (i.e the old Department of Net) of the  Pier.
