Morning, departure for Ba Na Hills, or Chua Mount (Mount of Goddess), by passing the sea-shore on Nguyen Tat Thanh Street, one of the most beautiful roads of Da Nang City and Red Beach. Ba Na Hills used to be a small French resort nestled in the mountains and recently has been turning into the most well-known amusement park of Vietnam thanks to its good location, formation and climate. Arrive at the Cable car station at the foot of Ba Na Mountain. Enjoy the first leg Cable car, which achieves two Guinness World record as the longest non-stop cable car (5,042m) and the highest non-stop cable car (1,292m). The cable cars were built to feed the mountaintop of Ba Na Hills, but they’re also the perfect way to get spectacular views of Danang and the surrounding forests. Upon reaching Ba Na Hills, start the trip with a v isit to Golden Bridge which is designed to connect the cable car station with the main gardens of this mountaintop. It is also to provide a scenic overlook and tourist attraction. The gold-colored walkway is lined with purple Lobelia Chrysanthemums and is 150 meters long with two giant hands, constructed of fiberglass and wire mesh. These two hands appear like stone hands that support the structure. After the Golden Bridge, we’ll continue to visit Le Jardin d’ Amour, old wineries, remains of French Villas and Ling Ung Pagoda with 27m high Buddha status. We then leave the Le Jardin for the second cable car station to visit the top of mountain where there are remains of the old French villas found.
