Da Nang is booming: we found accommodation in the newer area along the beach. Unfortunately this area is kinda bland, ok for a night or two, but our walk along the beach was nice. Hoi An is only 30 km away, and our plan was to take the local bus from Da Nang to Hoi An and then come back through in a few days and stay more in town.
This fabulous new Dragon Bridge was completed in 2012. It was not too far from our beach hotel, but the walk was bleak: wide boulevards with trash-strewn empty lots, high rise hotels going up everywhere.
Along the river.
The head of the dragon! It is lit every night, but on Saturday and Sunday nights at 9 pm the dragon breathes fire and spews water! We first visited mid-week and made plans to swing back through on a weekend day.
