What to eat in Da Nang
Mi Quang is the Quang Nam dish Da Nang claims: turmeric noodles under a shallow, concentrated broth with pork, shrimp, peanuts and a sesame rice cracker. Banh xeo with skewered nem lui belongs at Ba Duong on Hoang Dieu. Han Market handles banh mi and seafood, and Bac My An does grilled fish. Breakfast for locals is bun cha ca, a fish-cake noodle soup.
What first-timers get wrong in Da Nang
Crossing a road in this motorbike city means walking at a constant pace and letting traffic flow around you; stopping suddenly is what causes collisions. Use Grab for cars and bikes, because street taxis quote badly. Renting a motorbike without the correct licence voids travel insurance outright. My Khe flies a flag system, rip currents build from October, and lifeguards leave at five.
Da Nang after dark
The night here is riverside rather than clubby. Bridges over the Han light up, the Dragon Bridge draws its crowd from about half past eight at weekends, and the An Thuong strip behind My Khe holds the expat bars and live music. Bach Dang rooftops run to roughly midnight. Sky36 atop the Novotel is the late option and expensive by Vietnamese standards.
Da Nang with kids, realistically
This is the easiest Vietnamese city for small children: wide pavements, a long flat beachfront promenade, and calm surf at My Khe between March and September. Asia Park's Sun Wheel suits under-tens, while Marble Mountains' steps do not. Ba Na Hills is a full day and a great deal of cable car. Grab is cheap, but child seats are effectively unavailable, so plan accordingly.
