Introduction

Da Nang, located in central Vietnam, is an ancient port city with a long history, known as an important gateway since ancient times. It is now the capital of Quang Nam-Da Nang Province and a naval base, with a spacious and deep harbor capable of accommodating warships of tens of thousands of tons. The city has developed industries such as alkali, textiles, rubber, cement, and paper, and the surrounding suburbs cultivate crops such as rice, corn, and rubber. The ancient Cham towers can be found at Meishan, which is about 69 kilometers southwest of the city, and they have a long history. Since becoming a central city in 1997, Da Nang has become the central city of central Vietnam, with an international airport and seaport. It is the crossroads of three world cultural heritage sites in Vietnam, namely the ancient capital of Hue, the ancient town of Hoi An, and the sanctuaries of My Son. Moreover, with 30 kilometers of coastline and a mild climate all year round, Da Nang enjoys social stability and is one of the best coastal destinations in Vietnam. It is also one of the best summer resorts in Southeast Asia, attracting numerous tourists for sightseeing and tourism activities.
