Da Nang top attractions
My Khe Beach
Once rated by Forbes magazine as one of the most beautiful beaches on the planet, My Khe Beach extends approximately 900 meters and is one of the most popular tourist spots in Da Nang.
Its clear blue waters, gentle waves, fine white sands, and long rows of coconut trees give My Khe Beach an irresistibly charming allure. Visitors can hardly resist the temptation to immerse themselves in the warm waters upon arrival.
At My Khe Beach, visitors can also enjoy the majestic sight of the Marble Mountains and Cham Islands in the distance. Imagine, during a sunrise or sunset, being enveloped in a space where you have the sea, the sky, and the mountains… It just makes one want to grab a backpack and embark on a journey immediately!
Ba Na Hills
When talking about famous tourist destinations in Da Nang, Ba Na Hills cannot be missed. It is recognized as one of Vietnam’s premier resort complexes intertwined with an entertainment park, playing a significant role in attracting tourists to Da Nang.
Ba Na Hills enjoys a cool climate throughout the year as it is situated at a height of 1,487 meters above sea level. Visitors can experience all four seasons in a single day and enjoy the breathtaking natural landscapes.
Moreover, Ba Na Hills boasts an impressive array of entertainment facilities. Guests can visit the ancient French Village, explore the Golden Bridge – a marvel that has been honored by TIME magazine as one of the top 10 must-visit destinations worldwide, or have fun at one of the most modern amusement parks in the country.
Dragon Bridge
It would be a notable omission to discuss the famous tourist attractions of Da Nang and not mention the Dragon Bridge, one of the iconic structures in the “City of Bridges.”
Located on Nguyen Van Linh Street and within the precinct of Phuoc Ninh ward in Hai Chau district, it is the seventh bridge to span the Han River. The unique design of the Dragon Bridge evokes the image of a mighty dragon ready to soar into the sky.
To fully appreciate the beauty of the Dragon Bridge, it is best to visit in the evening. At that time, the bridge is illuminated by more than 2,500 multi-colored LED lights that change flexibly depending on the event.
Additionally, on weekends, the Dragon Bridge draws large numbers of tourists with fire and water displays, from 9:00 PM every Saturday and Sunday and on major holidays. The fire display includes two rounds, each with nine turns, followed by three water spraying turns.
Make sure to be on time and have your phone ready so you don’t miss out on the impressive moments from this performance.
Vin Wonders
Vin Wonders Nam Hoi An is not a place located within the city limits of Da Nang, but it is very convenient for you to visit during your trip to Da Nang.
Vin Wonders Nam Hội An is about 15km from the ancient town, but it offers a contrasting atmosphere—more modern and bustling. It can be described as an entertainment paradise with thrilling games that challenge the courage of brave hearts.
Additionally, visitors can cool off with various water park games, experience unique art forms recognized by UNESCO at the “Folk Culture Island,” or take a boat tour on the River Safari to see more than 500 animal species.
Hoi An Ancient Town
If you have set foot in Da Nang, you certainly should not miss the Hoi An Ancient Town. Located only about 30km from the city of Da Nang, this location is also often in the top attractions of Da Nang for both new and returning visitors.
The Ancient Town is beloved for its tranquil atmosphere with centuries-old architectural works preserved almost intact. It’s not an overstatement to say that in Hoi An, any corner you stand at will yield a beautiful picture.
Visiting the Ancient Town, besides sightseeing and capturing the picturesque streets, you can also visit famous historical sites such as the Japanese Covered Bridge, Tấn Ký Old House, or Quân Thắng House… And don’t forget to enjoy the refreshing local drink “nước mót” and the famous Hoi An dish “cao lau”.

Son Tra Peninsula
The Son Tra Peninsula boasts a pristine forest with a salubrious climate that nature has favorably bestowed upon Da Nang. Situated about 10 km from the city center, the Son Tra Peninsula is a favored destination for many tourists, especially those who travel independently to Da Nang.
Famous tourist spots in Da Nang such as the Linh Ung Pagoda, the Chessboard Peak, and the Obama Rocks are all located on the Son Tra Peninsula, which also happens to be the sole location in Vietnam with an ecosystem that combines both forest and sea.
