🌉 2. See the Dragon Bridge & Han River Show
One of Da Nang’s icons is the Dragon Bridge, a stunning piece of architecture that lights up every night. On weekends at 9pm, don’t miss the fire and water performance—a favorite for locals and visitors. The nearby Han River promenade is lively, with street performances and night views.
Tip: Arrive early for a good spot! The riverside area is perfect for an evening stroll or cycling.
🌄 3. Visit Ba Na Hills & Golden Bridge
Located in the mountains outside Da Nang, Ba Na Hills is a must-see. Ride the world’s longest cable car up to a French-style village, amusement park, and the Instagram-famous Golden Bridge—a giant pedestrian bridge supported by two massive hands. Temperatures are cool, and views are spectacular.
Tip: Book tickets online or go early to avoid crowds, especially in peak season.
🪨 4. Explore Marble Mountains
Marble Mountains (Ngu Hanh Son) are a cluster of limestone and marble hills just south of the city. Explore hidden caves, ancient pagodas, stone-carving villages, and climb the steps for panoramic city and beach views. It’s a great mix of culture, nature, and adventure.
Tip: Wear comfortable shoes, and don’t miss Am Phu Cave for a unique experience!
