Top 5 things to do in Da Nang, Vietnam

Vietnam is a part of the world that is overlooked by many when it comes to custom travel. There are so many highlights you can see in this beautiful country. Here are a list of my Top 5 things to do in the beautiful city DaNang, Vietnam.

1. The Food is Amazing! Of course we have to start with the food. There are some definite staple foods you have to try when visiting Da Nang. Here are a list of a few of the best locations I have found and specialty items they serve:

• Mi Quang (Vietnamese Turmeric Noodles)

• Bun Thit Nuong (Vermicelli Noodles With Grilled Pork)

• Vietnamese BBQ.

• Bun Cha Ca (Fishcake Noodles Soup)

• Com Tam (Broken Rice)

• Com Chien (Vietnamese Fried Rice)

2. Da Nang, The Dragon Bridge. The Dragon Bridge is over the River Han and is truly an amazing feet of art and construction. Oh, and if you are in the city on a Saturday or Sunday don't forget to stop by the bridge for the 9 PM show of fire blowing and water spouts! Trust me, it's worth it!

3. Visit the Bà Nà Hills and the breath taking "The Golden Bridge". "The Golden Bridge" is a 150-meter-long pedestrian bridge in the Bà Nà Hills resort, near Da Nang, Vietnam. It is designed to connect the cable car station with the gardens and to provide a scenic overlook and tourist attraction. It's truly a mesmerizing site to see!

4. Hiking through the beautiful country side. Da Nang has so many areas of natural beauty. From trail riding day trips to eco friendly hikes. You will definitely be pleased with the get aways you can find.

One thing to watch out for though are the clever, yet adorable, monkeys. While they might come up and seem very friendly (they are for the most part) you still want to watch all your bags because they can be very quick to swipe your personal items. It's not just bananas they love!

5. Markets and Street events/entertainment.

Con Market offers great local street food and entertainment. A great place to get something special to take back home as a reminder of your beautiful Vietnam experience. Another great market I have to recommend is the Son Tra Night market.

That said, there are many markets all across the country so you will have an easy time finding one that will be a great source of snacks and take home keepsakes.

If you have any questions about any of the great experiences I mentioned above, please submit a message to my contact tool and I would be happy to help you plan your next trip.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Cheers!
