About
While most visitors to Vietnam have Hoi An on their radar, many miss the beach city of Da Nang. This buzzing Central Vietnam hub is surrounded by limestone mountains, ancient temples and beaches that will make you think ‘paradise!’. You wouldn’t want to miss that, right?
During this Da Nang city tour, we’ll explore the following spots:
Marble Mountains: Measuring 500m in height and 800m in length, this impressive collection of five limestone outcrops make up the famous Marble Mountains. A myriad of craggy caves and hidden tunnels filled with temples and shrines make this unique site an ideal spot for adventure-seekers.
“You’ll see some cool shrines, temples, pagodas and caves, as well as some beautiful views over beaches and countryside” — Jon Is Travelling
Linh Ung Pagoda: Of all the religious monuments in Central Vietnam, few are as impressive as the giant Lady Buddha statue measuring 67 metres in height. We’ll explore this serene temple beside the ocean and learn more about Buddhism in Vietnam.
Cham Museum: If you don’t have time to visit My Son Sanctuary, this highly-regarded museum full of statues and artefacts is an excellent place to learn about the ancient Cham people. This Hindu civilisation dating back to the 3rd century predates Buddhism in Vietnam.
“This museum has the world’s largest collection of Cham artefacts, it displays more than 300!’’ — Govinda, India
My Khe Beach: After a busy day exploring the Da Nang region and learning about its culture and history, you’ll be glad to relax on the beach before heading home. My Khe Beach boasts white sand, clear water and blue skies all year round.
