We strongly suggest that you visit Hoian Ancient Town at night because, when the lights from the houses are turned on, the entire riverfront transforms into a magical paradise filled with dazzling fairy lights. Ancient Town Hoian exudes an atmosphere that is tranquil, soft, and romantic, and visitors may experience this feeling very strongly.

The releasing of lanterns on the Hoai River is an important tradition that serves two purposes: first, to express appreciation to ancestors, and second, to wish for a happy year moving forward. On the days of the full moon, which are the first and fifteenth of the month according to the lunar calendar, "Old Town Hoian trades its electric lights for traditional colourful lanterns." In the evening, the Hoai River is illuminated by the gentle light of the lanterns, and hundreds of paper flowers that are lit by candles are floating gracefully across the water.

• Opening Hours: 6:00 AM – 7:00 PM every day

Han Market was established in the early 1940s, during the time that Da Nang was under French occupation. It was named after the Han river, which was located in the area. There, the French built a massive train network known as the Tourane Marché in order to bring products to the major station during their occupation. As a result of the continual expansion of the business, a number of Chinese and Vietnamese merchants made the decision to construct a commercial centre around the market that would include Chinese traditional medicine stores, jewellery stores, and grocery stores, among other types of establishments. During the year 1989, Han market underwent a comprehensive renovation that encompassed a total space of 28,000 square metres and included two spacious floors. Currently, the remodelling has resulted in the market having a spacious and revitalising environment. Additionally, the placement of retailers within the market has resulted in the consumers experiencing a sensation of relaxation because they are shopping there.

• Opening hours: 6 am – 9 pm
• Entrance fee: Free

Perched on a turtle-shaped hill with a view of the ocean, it is surrounded by a vast primitive forest that is teeming with wildlife. This pagoda represents a major step forward for Vietnamese Buddhism in the modern era; its construction began in 2004 and was finished six years later. Heaven and Earth are connected at the pagoda. Nature enthusiasts must visit Buddha Beach, a stunning location on the Son Tra Peninsula near the pagoda. Local fishermen during the reign of Emperor Minh Mang supposedly found a statue of the Goddess of Mercy on the shore, prompting the construction of a temple in her honour.

Since then, the location has been known as But (Buddha) Beach, and its occupants have enjoyed tranquil and wealthy lives. The 18 sculptures of Arhat, depicting various emotions such as joy, fury, love, and hate, are truly remarkable works of art that visitors should not miss. Furthermore, the statue of the Goddess of Mercy will profoundly move them. At 67 metres tall and 35 metres in circumference at its base, it stands tall as Vietnam’s tallest monument. A 30-story structure would be dwarfed by it. There are seventeen stories within this monument, and on each level are twenty-one little Buddha statues depicting various emotions and forms. Rumour has it that the local fisherman are protected from storms and strong waves by the Goddess of Mercy statue, which faces the sea. Visitors to Da Nang can find spiritual solace at the Linh Ung Pagoda, which serves as both a religious and tourism attraction.
