Trivia
Quang Ngai is famous for a local dish known as Com Ga, which is basically boiled chicken over yellow rice.

Quang Ngai is nestled ten miles inland and was once the place to visit and pay homage to the site of the My Lai Massacre. Most trips now leave from more built up established cities such as Hoi An where there is more to do and see.

The area saw a rebellion against the French and Japanese in 1945 and during the Vietnam War and was witness to one of the worst slaughters in history with a reported 504 innocent people killed from one village.
