Referring to Da Nang, people's thoughts almost always have the same feeling: Da

Nang is a city that almost always gives people the feeling that there is always
something new, always moving forward,  the side of the future, of the good.
 As we affirmed from the beginning, there were no any city in our country that has a
river, a sea, and a mountain that are right in our hearts, like Da Nang.

 Ten years ago, my family had a travel to Da Nang city. Traveling to Da Nang once
was enough for us to miss it dearly, this place was very dear, very close but also very
modern. We don't understand why that feeling was so strange, interesting and we
loved it very much, I don't know since when have we loved Da Nang?  Why did We
love this place so much?  And why was Da Nang tourism so attractive to tourists?

 We still remember the first time we set foot in Da Nang, this city welcomed us with
the beautiful Hai Van Pass road like heaven, with the deep blue of the sea and the lush
mountains and the green of the forest.  We felt in love with Da Nang from that
moment on, an ecstatic love in the true sense of the word admiration and worship.
That love is even more built up when we chose this place as our summer vacation. 
Every minute We breathed in the fresh air here, ate delicious food for only 15k at a
sidewalk shop, or simply sit and talked with a salesman, we knew how to love.  It was
deeply ingrained in our hearts.
 If you ask why we loved Da Nang so much, it was really difficult to answer.  Why? 
If there's a very obvious reason, it's definitely not possible.  But for many reasons it is
true that what we are sharing. It may not be complete, but we think it is enough to
warm our hearts when thinking about this charming city.

 There are many songs and poems written about Da Nang as an attractive gift for this
land.  The song "Da Nang where I love" performed by singer Ho Quynh Huong has
touched the hearts of people.  The song introduced a coastal city on the banks of the
Han River that is poetic and is changing very quickly as poet-journalist Thanh Thao
commented: "Da Nang today is the boy from Giong village who stretched out his
arms,  with his back leaning against Truong Son and his eyes looking straight to the
East Sea".

 A city nestled along the coast and with the poetic Han River flowing through, where
we could feel the modern beauty mixed with the fairy space of a place that was hailed
as the most livable in Vietnam.  But that is not all that people think about Da Nang, in
the hearts of young people, it is like a place to stop to experience many new things.
 Da Nang had many places to visit that only a day or two we were not be able to visit
all.  These were beautiful and surprisingly clean beaches, fine sand stretches to the
horizon, legendary bridges crossing the dreaming Han River or Son Tra peninsula,
where the top of the chessboard makes  Fairy more beautiful than ever. Sometimes we
dreamed of straying from Ba Na Hill to know what a fairyland looked like. 
Ba Na Hill was immersed in magical fog all year round which made us feel like we
could touch the clouds or ride the clouds like the gods from the heaven. But there
were times when that place made us think we were traveling somewhere in the west
that was so beautiful and dreamy.
 We liked the feeling of traveling on the Hai Van Pass, embracing the blue sea, the
high sky, the majestic mountains and the beautiful small city that were bursting with
life every day.  Da Nang had many things that made us love so much, but perhaps
only when the heart still has the enthusiasm of youth, we can fully feel all the flavors
of life, in the bustle tinged with anxiety or in the present of a modern city.

 Da Nang had blue sea, white sand, gentle waves, golden sunshine and floating clouds.
There was nothing more interesting than walking on the beach to watch the sunrise or
swimming and watching the sunset. The long stretch of coastline was great, each wave
hitting the sand erases so much sadness in our heart. From there, our emotions and
motivations were overflowing in this wonderful life.
 Walking along the Da Nang coast watching the pigeons in the early morning was a
great start to an interesting day.  The gentle blue sea without any disturbance or noise,
the sea gently basking in the sun, sparkling with the color of peace and purity.
 Like other modern cities, Da Nang had no shortage of cute cafes and milk tea shops
or beautiful views for us to drop by when we felt uncomfortable in the heat of noon. 
Walking into the famous Han market in Da Nang, we saw a bustling scene, buyers and
sellers with all kinds of specialties.  We were fascinated with the extremely attractive
food stalls, from main dishes to sweet dishes such as tea, sticky rice and smoothies…

 Going to the sea at night, spreading our heart into the winds, letting the waves soothe
our mind, so our soul were so light.  The sea at night in Da Nang was more crowded
than during the day, but there was absolutely no noise, everyone was still sitting
quietly together, talking quietly, everyone had a space, a deserted sea for themselves.
Sitting watching the sea and then stopping at one of the seafood carts along the road
were warm and happy.
 That's all, just hanging around familiar places, but why is Da Nang so different,
peaceful, simple and sincere.  Someone loves Da Nang because this land is sparkling,
brilliant, because Da Nang is young and modern, but in that moment of wandering we
realized that our love for this land came from simple things such as street stall, a smile
or a peaceful sky by the empty sea.
