Day 2: Full day visit Ba Na Hills/Golden Bridge

Meal provided: Breakfast

This morning, start our trip to Ba Na Hills, a hill station and resort located in the Truong Son Mountain west of the city of Danang. The station, advertised as “the Dalat of Danang province” by local tourism authorities, was founded in 1919 by French colonists.

A trip by cable car will offer you a chance to admire the panorama of Ba Na Hills, spring stream, Danang City, and Danang coast from your cabin at the height of 1,487 meters above sea level.

There are a variety of restaurants at the Complex for your own exploration (Pay on the spot)

During your time on the mountain, enjoy a visit to:
• Fantasy Park: the amusement park reserves countless funs and surprises, which of course involve well-tailored games to keep little kids occupied and delighted all day long.
• The Le Jardin with the relics of the French, such as the force of the French horse, nearly 100-year-old grapefruit trees, and traces of ancient villas. Especially Debay cellar, the wine cellar was built by the French in 1923, and spent nearly a century, they still retain the cellar wild, and mysterious, the work of the French single remaining fairly intact Ba Na.
• Linh Ung Pagoda, located on the peak of Ba Na Mountain at the height of 1.400 meters, was officially inaugurated on the 5th of March, 2004. You can also feel your interest in a lot of pretty villas, newly built hotels, and bungalows here. Each one has its own flower garden with many types of aristocratic flowers that Frenchmen left during the 50 past years.

Keep taking a nice walk to Golden Bridge. Winding its way around a 150-meter course lined with flowers, a golden bridge shimmers against the Ba Na Hills, supported by a pair of giant hands. The bridge sits 1,400 meters above sea level, an altitude that creates the illusion of a silk strip hiding in the clouds above Da Nang.

Drive back to your hotel in Danang around 5-6 PM.

Then, continue your afternoon with a walking tour around this enchanting port town of Hoi An, follow the narrow lanes lined with centuries-old houses influenced by Chinese, Japanese, French, and European architectures, and visit its numerous places of interest: the 400-year-old Japanese Covered Bridge, the Phuc Kien Assembly Halls, the Tan Ky old house, the local market,…
• Japanese Covered Bridge dates back to the 18th century and is a beautiful historical piece of Japanese architecture. It is claimed that it was created by the Japanese then living in Hoi An as a way to reach the Chinese quarter across the water. The bridge was opened by Nguyen Phuc Chu Lord in 1719 who carved three Chinese symbols above the door in commemoration.
• Phuc Kien Assembly Halls were built around 1690 and function as a traditional assembly hall for the Chinese ethnic group from Fujian, China to socialize, but later were transformed into a temple dedicated to their deity named Thien Hau – the goddess of the sea who protects sailors from danger.
• Tan Ky’s old house is an almost perfect example of an 18th merchant’s residence in this major commercial port town. The name Tan Ky, meaning “Progress Shop”, was given to the house by the second generation to express the owner’s wish for a prosperous business. Around the town, you can see numerous art galleries and tailor shops. You are also free to get some made-to-order clothes if you like.

Most countries in South East Asia require you to obtain a visa. Please check carefully with your travel specialist regarding specific visa requirements for each country you plan to visit as the legislation does change frequently. Thailand offers a free visa on arrival to most nationalities. Other countries including Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and Myanmar offer a “visa-on-arrival” service which requires you to pay a fee at the airport, or you may prefer to obtain this in advance through the relevant embassy or a visa agent. For visa-on-arrival in Vietnam, you must submit some paperwork before you arrive.

This is an option to get your visa for Vietnam instead of getting visa at the Vietnam consulate in your country.

     • Date of exit (dd/mm/yy)

We will send the visa approval letter via email to you after 7 working days.
After we obtain the visa approval letter from the Immigration department for you, we will forward you a scanned copy of it by email (Your visa information then have been recorded to the Visa system of the Vietnam Immigration department).

Put all above mentioned things along with your passport in a package, then show them to Immigration officer at Vietnam arrival airports.

    Upon arrival at Vietnam’s airport, expect a simple form to fill in (or you can download here to fill beforehand), present the visa approval letter, passport, photos to the Immigration officer inside the counter and look for a place to hear your name be called to get the passport back and pay for the stamping fee.
