Itinerary

Upon pickup from your hotel in Da Nang city center, you will be taken to Marble Mountain, a cluster of five hills made from limestone and marble in Da Nang: Thuy Son (water) which is the highest, Moc Son (wood), Kim Son (metal), Tho Son (soil), and Hoa Son (fire).These mountains have a complicated system of caves and tunnels. In the past they were used as hiding places and important bases for Vietnamese revolutionaries.

Leaving Marble Mountain, we will head north to visit the Son Tra Peninsula (Monkey Mountain),is a beautiful peninsula with long, white sandy beaches, picturesque landscapes and primeval forests.In here, we will visit the third Linh Ung Pagoda,the most important pagoda in Danang for the Buddhist people to come and pray. What strikes visitors to Linh Ung pagoda most is the  Son Tra Quan Am (Son Tra Goddess of Mercy). The 67-m statue is the tallest in Southeast Asia. The Statue leans on the mountain and looks toward the sea.Guanyin statue is the in-official symbol of Danang city, similar to the Jesus Christ in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Then go sightseeing at Thuan Phuoc Brigde,one of the most amazing bridges in Da Nang city. From all points of view, Thuan Phuoc Bridge reflects a modern outlook, full of charm and splendor.

The next, we have lunch at a restaurant and relax.

After lunch, continue to the Han Local Market, the most important trading point of Da Nang City. Han market is ideal for those looking for some Danang's souvenirs before heading home. If you are flying overseas after, you may take limited dried food with you but if you have more time to spare in Vietnam, stock up on fresh fruits and local snacks.
