About Da Nang
Da Nang sits on Vietnam's central coast. The city combines a long stretch of sand with bridges and hills just outside the center. Walk My Khe Beach in the morning or watch traffic cross the Dragon Bridge at dusk. Marble Mountains stand close to the shore with paths through caves and small shrines.
Linh Ung Pagoda on the Son Tra Peninsula is known for its tall white statue of the Goddess of Mercy. Ba Na Hills rise further inland via cable car to gardens and viewpoints. The Museum of Cham Sculpture displays regional stone carvings. This suits beach and culture trips that mix short city stays with day trips to the coast and hills.
