Experience 3 best destinations of Da Nang in 2 days

Da Nang is more than just a coastal city with beaches – it has mountains, amazing hiking trails, historical sites, and eco-tourism destinations to enjoy. 


Day 1: Son Tra Peninsula


Sơn Trà


The foot of the peninsula is only 16 kilometers from the city center. I recommend renting your own motorbike for the day and exploring the steep and scenic military roads that were left over from the war. If your motorbike has a small engine, enter from the port side of the city instead of heading straight for the Lady Buddha that protects the local fisherman. Google Maps gives you a good idea as to the extent of these fun roads and their steep grades.


You can find hidden beaches, small hikes, a statue of Confucius, and an 800-year old tree among other things on this peninsula. Many locals come here, especially on Sunday to enjoy their day off and eat seafood.


Marble Mountains


Núi Ngũ Hành


You can’t visit Da Nang without seeing the Marble Mountains. Located to the south of the city, this area is home to a lot of history, and you guessed it, marble. Once you climb the many stairs, you’ll gain access to the series of caves and shrines, partly spooky, partly beautiful, this is a completely unique area. You can easily see this entire place in half a day and enjoy the local foods.


Day 2: Ba Na Hills



Ba Na Hill

This mountain wonderland of amusement parks, incredible views, cable cars, and European villages is 35 kilometers to the southeast of Da Nang. Originally built by the French in 1919, this area was established as a getaway destination since it experiences much cooler temperatures than its surrounding environment. It is now home to a world record, known for its longest non-stop cable car and the growing-in-fame Golden Bridge.


While it does not afford the freedom of exploration that is characteristic of Son Tra peninsula, Ba Na Hills does offer a different charm. If you want to get away and far above the world, buy the 700,000 VND ticket which includes a two-way cable car pass and games in the Fantasy Park area. This area is great for families and for travelers wanting to explore the famous Sun World amusement parks that Vietnam is famous for. In addition, the are various restaurants with best dishes of Vietnamese cuisine for you to enjoy all day long.
