My Khe Beach is a 30-kilometer-long white sand beach. It is one of the six most beautiful beaches in the world and is also known as the "Hawaii of the East". It is a must-see for every tourist who comes to Da Nang. One of the attractions I missed. The fine white sand, the azure blue waters and the breeze blowing through the swaying coconut trees are all so beautiful, whether it is dusk or the sun is shining. It is so cool to lie on the beach and let your mind wander. Yes! I strongly recommend arriving at My Khe Beach near dusk so that you can enjoy two different kinds of scenery at the same time and avoid the hot afternoon time. You can enjoy both kinds of scenery at the same time and avoid the hottest afternoon time. It’s really killing two birds with one stone!

During the day, the bridge is majestic, while at night, the dragon is dotted with colorful LED lights, casting charming reflections on the Han River, presenting an intoxicating scene that is completely different from the daytime.

Da Nang Cathedral, also known as the "Pink Church", is a tourist attraction that drives girls crazy. It is definitely a must-visit photo-taking spot for tourists visiting Da Nang! Built in 1923 during the French colonial period, the church displays a gorgeous Gothic style and its well-arranged decorations are dazzling. The most distinctive feature is the weather vane on the church spire, which is shaped like a rooster, so some people call it the "Rooster Church". I think this place has a very European feel. If you don’t tell me, no one will realize that this is actually Vietnam.

6. Marble Mountain (Ngũ Hành Sơn)

The Five Elements Mountains, named after the five natural elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, are a religious holy place with a strong Buddhist atmosphere. Among the five mountains, Water Mountain is the most visited by pilgrims. The "Xuankong Cave" in Shuishan is the largest natural cave landscape in Wuxing Mountain. It houses a 4-meter-high Buddha statue. Sunlight shines through the cracks in the cave and falls on the Buddha statue, forming a natural Buddha light. The scenery has become one of the attractions that cannot be missed in Da Nang.

7. Golden Buddha's Hand Bridge in Ba Na Hills

Speaking of Da Nang, I believe that the first thing that comes to mind for many people, like me, is this golden Buddha's Hand Golden Bridge! Speaking of the Ba Na Hills Golden Buddha's Hand Bridge, it is actually located in Ba Na Hills Sun World and is about 150 meters long. Because Ba Na Hills is located at an altitude of 1,400 meters, it is often shrouded in clouds, making this golden bridge look even more fairy-like! If you come to Da Nang for tourism and don’t see the golden Buddha’s hand, don’t say you have been to Da Nang!

8. My Son Sanctuary

The My Son Sanctuary, a world cultural heritage site known as the "Little Angkor Wat", is the site of a Hindu temple built by the ancient Champa Dynasty in My Son. It is also a holy place for Hinduism. This temple was built in the 4th century, but due to various historical factors such as wars, it was later forgotten. It was not until the 19th century that French scholars rediscovered it and began restoration work. In addition to the site itself, there is also a museum that details the history of how Hinduism was introduced to Vietnam.

Friends who like cultural and historical relics can come to the My Son Sanctuary to easily experience the superb skills of ancient craftsmen up close. The ruins are well preserved, and you don’t have to fly to crowded India to appreciate the historical style of Hinduism. The editor absolutely supports this visit with both hands!

9. Danang Museum

For history lovers, the Da Nang Museum is definitely a must-visit! The museum houses a large collection of cultural relics related to Vietnamese history and culture. In particular, it exhibits many items related to the war years, directly presenting the true face of the Vietnam War at that time to tourists. In the Da Nang Museum, you can more deeply feel the rise and fall of a nation and understand the deeper aspects of Vietnamese society and culture. For those who want to learn more about Vietnam, it is highly recommended to come and find out in person!

10. Chợ cồn Market

If you want to taste the most local Danang cuisine, the best place to go is Sa Chau Market! Da Nang Sa Chau Market is also the oldest and largest farmers' market in Da Nang. The market is divided into two areas, one side is the local vegetable market, while the other is a paradise for gourmets! I highly recommend this place, and it is adjacent to Big C supermarket, so you can taste the authentic food first, and then go to Big C to buy some local souvenirs to bring back to your relatives and friends. It's really great La!
