About Da Nang

Da Nang is a breezy coastal city in central Vietnam, with long sandy beaches, the Marble Mountains and misty hill stations close at hand.

My Khe Beach stretches along the city's eastern edge, backed by seafood restaurants and a palm-lined promenade. The Han River runs through the centre, crossed by the Dragon Bridge, shaped like its namesake and lit up after dark, and the Son Tra Peninsula rises to the north with forested slopes, a towering Lady Buddha statue and rare red-shanked douc langurs.
