• Day 9 Hoi An and Ba Na Hills

    April 18 in Vietnam ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C

    Not sure where to begin- today was awesome. An experience we’ll never forget. Left at 8 30 with our private driver and guide for Ba Na Hills. Ba Na Hills takes 6-8 hours to explore fully, including the cable car, Golden Bridge, French Village, Fantasy Park, and other attractions. The drive was 40 minutes to a bus which then took us to the cable car. Each cable car took 10 people and was the longest in the world at 6kms. It then dropped us off at the Golden Bridge which was an incredible structure complete with huge hand sculptures. There were thousands of people and it was hard to even take photos due to the lack of space. The view down was also spectacular. We then caught a second cable car for a short distance to Sun World, a French village built in the mountains. Many of the buildings replicated those in France and others were for worshipping Buddha. All were huge and the gardens surrounding them were incredible. After a lunch of sushi we visited more of the area including the amusement park which had numerous games and rides and food stalls. Every area had queues of people and it required some patience. We finally met up with our guide again at 3 :30 and set off back down the hill exhausted after a hot and exhilarating day. One of the best of the tour so far. On return to Hoi An we waisted no time getting into the pool before a dinner of Pho and Squid.Read more
