    Da Nang has beach, city and mountains

    August 18, 2018 in Vietnam ⋅ 36 °C

    We took a short bus trip from Hue to Da Nang, which was quite different. The seats were organized in a way that you could lay down and sleep.
    We made it to our hostel/hotel (Not quite sure, online it was a hotel, but when we arrived it was a hostel) we checked in and walked to the famous dragon bridge. This was definitely a highlight for us, and as it was Saturday the dragon breathes fire and shoots water out of its mouth. We waited until nighttime, and watched from the top of the hostel roof, unbeknownst to us a huge storm was coming in! Uh-oh! We had to call it a night, and we couldn’t watch the show, not until the next day. And what a show it was! The crowds were out in full force and we watched the dragon show. Because of the winds, the water sprayed on most of the people on the bridge and a lot of them ran away from the show. It was fun being in the crowd and enjoying the experience!
    Da Nang reminded us of Las Vegas with all the lights at nighttime, and the inlet cutting through the town was really beautiful.
