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.
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.
What's actually worth your time in Da Nang
Marble Mountains costs 40,000 VND plus 15,000 for the lift each way, and the Am Phu hell cave needs its own 20,000 VND ticket, which is the memorable part. Ba Na Hills and the Golden Bridge charge 950,000 VND and amount to a theme park with a famous handrail. My Khe beach is free and better than either. Dragon Bridge breathes fire Friday to Sunday at nine.
Da Nang's museums, and which one to pick
The Museum of Cham Sculpture, built by the French in 1915 beside the Han River, is the world's best collection of Cham art, with sandstone altars and Shiva lingams lifted from My Son. Entry is 60,000 VND and it opens daily from seven to five. The Da Nang Museum and Fine Arts Museum are modest by comparison. The 3D Trick Eye place is a photo studio, not a museum.
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.
