\n

Da Nang is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Vietnam, and for good reason. Known as the most liveable city in the country, its beautiful nature scenery, charming beaches, friendly people, and delicious foods have enthralled many a visitor.<\/span><\/p>\n

That said, Da Nang is a big city with many things to do, and famous places such as Ba Na Hills or My Khe Beach are but the surface of what the city has to offer.\u00a0 So we\u2019ve taken it upon ourselves to compose an ultimate guide that covers <\/span>everything you can do in Da Nang<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

This article will be updated and expanded regularly to cover all the things to do, food to eat, and more in Da Nang, so stay tuned.<\/span><\/p>\n\n

\n

– Natural attractions –<\/h3>\n
\n

1.1. My Khe Beach \u2013 crystal clear water and white sand<\/h4>\n

Your Da Nang experience would not be complete without taking a swim at its famed <\/span>My Khe Beach<\/b>. Its sparkling white sand and crystal clear water rightfully earned it the reputation as one of the most beautiful beaches in Vietnam.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"my

The beach faces directly eastward, so set your alarm clock early to catch the sunrise. Dawn is also the best time to go kayaking if that\u2019s on your agenda, as the weather won\u2019t be too hot and there won\u2019t be too many people. And did I mention the beautiful sunrise?<\/span><\/p>\n

\"beach

Many locals have also set up shops here to provide all sorts of services, from beach chairs and drinks to lockers for you to put your personal items before going into the water, and tapwater showers to rinse yourself after.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

1.2. Son Tra Peninsula<\/h4>\n

Encompassing the My Khe Beach is the <\/span>Son Tra Peninsula<\/b>, frequented by locals and tourists alike thanks to the magnificent views and fresh air it offers. Simply drive along the beach, and soon enough you\u2019ll find a wide, well-built road leading up to the peninsula, with many spots to look down at both the city and the ocean below.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/span><\/i>There are many places to take pictures with beautiful views.<\/span>

You\u2019re also likely to encounter packs of pigtailed macaque \u2013 an endangered primate species that calls the mountain home \u2013 along the way. And yes, you might be tempted to lure these fascinating creatures over with snacks for a closer look and perhaps some pictures, but please, <\/span>do not feed<\/span><\/em> them.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/span>Image credit:<\/span> @rosie_ngochang<\/span><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Tourists feeding these macaques is a major concern for Da Nang authorities, as it creates a bad habit for these wild animals, making them dependent on humans for their food source. There have also been many cases where they jump onto visitors\u2019 cars and bikes to beg for food, causing accidents.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

1.3. Green Lake \u2013 with both city and ocean views<\/h4>\n
\n

Easily found at the foot of the S\u01a1n Tr\u00e0 Peninsula is the <\/span>Green Lake<\/b>, aptly named for its clear emerald water.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As you drive up the peninsula, keep an eye out for dirt paths on the roadside that\u2019ll lead you to an elevated patch of land \u2013 a favorite sightseeing and picnic spot for locals. From here, you can look down to see the entirety of the lake, the ocean beyond that, and the city further still.<\/span><\/p>\n

Also located on the S\u01a1n Tr\u00e0 Peninsula is the <\/span>Ti\u00ean Sa Lighthouse<\/b>, also known as the S\u01a1n Tr\u00e0 Lighthouse. Built by the French over a century ago, the lighthouse is one of the oldest in Vietnam and is still functioning to this day. Its colonial-era designs, brilliant white-and-yellow walls, and ocean views make it a sought-after photo spot in \u0110\u00e0 N\u1eb5ng.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"
\n<\/span><\/i>Image credit:<\/span><\/i> @poulpixel<\/span><\/i><\/a><\/p>\n

As the lighthouse is quite far up the mountain, we recommend driving up here on a motorbike. The road leading up here is well-built and smooth despite a few steep slopes, so it\u2019s not too hard to navigate.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Remember to use a manual transmission bike, however, as there will be security posts that turn scooters and automatic transmission motorcycles away for safety reasons.<\/span>

17km from \u0110\u00e0 N\u1eb5ng\u2019s center is the <\/span>Nam \u00d4 Village<\/b>, a charming coastal village that retains a pristine beauty thanks to its secluded location away from the busy city center.<\/span><\/p>\n

The village is most known for a reef of moss-covered rocks that look particularly stunning in pictures. You might want to drop by early at dawn, as this is when the tide recedes, baring the reef in all its glory.<\/span><\/p>\n

Many locals believe the pagoda suppresses frequent storms and brings prosperity to the city, and so they flock here regularly to offer prayers. Of course, you can visit simply to take a stroll in the pagoda\u2019s quaint garden and enjoy the views. Do note that it\u2019s a common etiquette to dress somewhat formally as you visit temples and pagodas in Vietnam. While not always required, attires such as trousers, long skirts, and sleeved shirts are encouraged.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Dragon Bridge is another landmark synonymous with Da Nang, and apart from being a popular check-in spot with river views, it\u2019s also known for its <\/span>weekly Dragon Bridge show.<\/b><\/p>\n

M\u1ef3 Qu\u1ea3ng \u2013 Qu\u1ea3ng-style noodles \u2013 is named after the province Qu\u1ea3ng Nam, which Da Nang used to be a part of. That the dish is named after the province itself is a testament to how popular it is.<\/span><\/p>\n

At its core, <\/span>m\u1ef3 Qu\u1ea3ng<\/span><\/em> is flattened noodles served with meat and veggies in a moderate amount of sauce. The meat used can be the regular pork or chicken, or less common flavors such as frog meat. The dish can also be eaten with crushed peanuts and <\/span>b\u00e1nh \u0111a<\/span><\/em> \u2013 a type of flattened, crunchy flour cake.<\/span><\/p>\n

The term b<\/em><\/span>\u00e1nh x\u00e8o nem l\u1ee5i <\/span><\/em>actually refers to two different dishes. <\/span>B\u00e1nh x\u00e8o<\/em> <\/span>is a kind of Vietnamese pancake with a crunchy flour layer wrapped over shrimp, meat, and bean sprouts. <\/span>Nem l\u1ee5i<\/span><\/em> is pork minced and squeezed into sticks, then grilled on charcoal.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can, of course, opt to have <\/span>b\u00e1nh x\u00e8o<\/span><\/em> or <\/span>nem l\u1ee5i<\/span><\/em> separately, but the two are most often served together as they bring out each other\u2019s flavors. Use a piece of rice paper to roll both together with lots of herbs, then dip the roll into a thick sauce made of meat and sesame for a tasty bite that still feels fresh and not too meaty.<\/span><\/p>\n

B\u00e1nh tr\u00e1ng cu\u1ed1n th\u1ecbt heo<\/i><\/b> is another \u0110\u00e0 N\u1eb5ng specialty whose name pretty much sums up exactly what it is. <\/span>B\u00e1nh tr\u00e1ng<\/span><\/i> are thin sheets of rice paper. You use one to <\/span>cu\u1ed1n <\/span><\/i>\u2013 or roll \u2013 veggies with <\/span>th\u1ecbt heo<\/span><\/i>, or pork, then dip the whole thing in a thick, pungent fish sauce called <\/span>m\u1eafm n\u00eam<\/span><\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Most often, the pork used in the dish is boiled belly meat, which has layers of fat that makes it juicy. At the same time, the greasiness is tempered by the veggies, and the sauce rounds up the taste. Sometimes, other ingredients such as peanuts or prawns are also added for additional flavors.<\/span><\/p>\n

B\u00e1nh canh<\/i><\/b> is a type of Vietnamese noodles that comes in 2 variations. One is made from rice, characterized by its white color and smooth, soft texture. The other, made from tapioca, is more transparent and chewier. Most often, eateries that offer this dish will ask which version you prefer, so choose the one that suits your taste.<\/span><\/p>\n

The noodles are served in a broth made from simmering beef or pork bones with condiments. Extra toppings, most commonly seafood such as shrimps, crab meat, or <\/span>ch\u1ea3 c\u00e1<\/span><\/i> \u2013 fish minced and baked into cakes \u2013 are then added to create a satisfyingly filling dish that\u2019s not too heavy.<\/span><\/p>\n
