History

Thị Nại was widely considered as the first port of Champa from the eleventh century to the later fifteenth century. At this time, Thị Nại played an important role in the trading between China, Southeast Asia and Southwest Asia countries. Thị Nại port was also a regional trading center of Champa. After the Vietnamese destroyed the kingdom of Champa, Thị Nại stayed a trading port. Following the Tây Sơn rebellions, Thị Nại port became a naval port. In mid 20th century, the government of South Vietnam rebuilt Thị Nại into a supporting naval port. After 1975, the Thị Nại port was continuously used as a naval port until recent years.
