About Đình Vũ East Entrance South Side Lighthouse

Also known as: #Đình Vũ East Entrance South Side

This cylindrical red tower, standing 12 meters tall, marked the south side of the entrance to the Đình Vũ branch of the Red River, leading to Hải Phòng's inner harbor. It emitted a single red flash every three seconds from a focal height of 11 meters, with a geographic range of 10.7 nautical miles. The structure itself was described as a round barbell shape. This navigational aid was removed from its position near the port of Haiphong following the construction of a bridge.
