    • Dragon Bridge is probably the biggest attraction in the city. This 666 meter long bridge in the shape of a long dragon stretches between the banks of the river Hàn, which divides the whole city in two halves. It is best to plan a visit to the bridge for the weekend evening. Every Saturday and Sunday at 9 pm, the bridge is closed for vehicles and filled with people who come to enjoy the dragon show.

Beach relax and surfing on My Khe Beach

    • Da Nang boasts a long sandy beach and definitely has a reason! Although My Khe Beach is a city beach, the sand and water are very clean and the beach is not crowded, so you don’t have to squeeze on a towel next to hundreds of other people. On the beach you can rent sunbeds and umbrellas for a few crowns, there are bars, changing rooms and toilets.

Amusement Park Sun World Da Nang Wonders

    • In an effort to attract more tourists, Da Nang opened a few years ago in the center of the Sun World Da Nang Wonders theme park. Its the biggest landmark, the 115 meter high ferris wheel, is one of the largest ferris wheels in the world. The park is worth a visit just because of the beautiful views of the city, which you can enjoy from the bike. In addition to it, you will also find a number of other carousels and adrenaline attractions.

Golden Bridge and Bana Hills

    • You’ll come across the Golden Bridge photo as soon as you type Da Nang into Google. The wooden footbridge, held by two giant marble hands high on a hill, often shrouded in pink mist, looks like one of the ancient wonders of the world. Disappointment comes when you find out that it is a modern building from 2018, which was built here to attract tourists. The Golden Bridge is part of the much larger Bana Hills Amusement Park. This resort is located about 20 kilometers from the city at an altitude of 1,500 meters above sea level. You can go there by cable car.

Visit Marble Mountains

    • About 8 kilometers south of Da Nang there is another spot that you should not miss. The so-called Marble Mountains, which form five marble rocks scattered along the sea shore.

Hoi An ancient city of lanterns
