Living in Da Nang – and what I love in it
"Follow your passion, and enjoy

Hello There!
I'm Hana
A local vietnamese and the owner of Hana’s Coworking
Da Nang is a young, lively city that’s growing fast, and I’ve been lucky to call it home.
Through this blog, I want to share the places that make Da Nang special — including the ones I personally love. You’ll see both the well-known spots and the quieter, more local that don’t always make it into guidebooks. It’s not about ranking the “best” places, it’s simply about sharing the ones I enjoy and visit myself
At the end of the page you will be able to find all the places linked in google map.
PLACES TO VISIT In Da nang
The Famous Places
Ba Na Hills
Ba Na Hills
is one of those places that feels a bit surreal – like stepping onto a movie set high in the mountains.
It’s touristy, yes, but also full of charm. Cable cars float above the forest, with amazing views.
The Golden Bridge is beautiful (and busy), but my favorite part was walking around through the quieter corners, climbing up and discovering beautiful views along the way.
It’s a fun and unique escape from the city – just make sure to go on a clear, sunny day.
Hai Van Pass
Hai Van Pass
isn’t just a road it’s the destination. The road curves between the mountains and the sea, with stunning views all along the way.
It’s worth stopping to take in the views, relax, and drink at one of the roadside stops. (that’s where I took the header photo on this blog).
If you’re riding a motorbike, it feels like real freedom. But if you’re not experienced on two wheels, no worries there are other options like going with a driver or joining a tour.
Cham Island
Cham Island
Cham Island is a peaceful place not far from Da Nang. You can get there by boat from Cua Dai, near Hoi An.
The island has clean beaches, clear water, and fresh seafood. Many people come to swim, snorkel, or just rest by the sea. If you want, you can stay overnight and enjoy the quiet evening.
There are no big hotels or busy streets — only a small village, a few roads, and nature. You can walk around or rent a bicycle to see more of the island.
Boats only go when the sea is calm, so it’s a good idea to check the weather before you go.
Son Tra Peninsula
Son Tra Peninsula
is one of my favorite places. I love how the road goes through the hills, opening up to views of the ocean and the city below. You can find hidden beaches along the way.
Stop for a fresh coconut on a cliff with an amazing panoramic view of Da Nang. Curious monkeys are often nearby don’t worry, they’re friendly, just keep an eye on your stuff!
It’s a small adventure close to the city feeling that you’ve gotten far away without going too far.
The Local Places
Sunset in Da Nang
Sunset in Da Nang
One of best places to watch the sunset, just a short drive from the center. It’s an open, peaceful spot right by the river and amazing for taking photos.
There are a few small drink stands along the road where you can sit and enjoy while the sun goes down.
It’s best to go on a nice, clear afternoon. Simple, relaxing, and really beautiful.
Secret Beach
Secret Beach
On the west side of the Son Tra Peninsula, there’s a small beach with calm, clear water far from the noise and crowds. During the week, it’s usually peaceful, with just a few locals.
To get in, use the entrance from the Navy Hotel and pay a small fee of 10K.
It’s recommended to go midweek rather than on the weekend.
Magical Garden & Pagoda
Magical Garden & Pagoda
A peaceful little spot to take a break in the middle of the day.
There’s a small garden with a fish pond, and it’s a nice place to sit and relax.
Locals come here to feel close to Buddha, but you don’t need to be religious to enjoy the calm.
It’s green, quiet, and a good place to clear your head.
You can even feed the fish if you want.
LÒ GẠCH CŨ FARM
LÒ GẠCH CŨ FARM
It’s a peaceful café in the middle of the rice fields in Hoi An, run by a lovely local family. Just sit there, watch the fields, and sip something refreshing.
The drinks menu is also nice — simple, but really good.
I usually come here whenever I visit Hoi An.
You can even climb the old brick building for great photos – it’s a small adventure.
Work space in Da Nang
Hana's Coworking
A story being written...
From someone who started with nothing but a dream to create a space for digital nomads — a place where we could work, connect, and share life together.
After founding and managing one of the first coworking spaces in Da Nang, I decided to create a space of my own — one that truly reflects my name, my vision, and everything I care about.
When I first started, I was just a countryside girl who couldn’t speak English and had never even been to a coworking space. Everything I know now — everything I’ve built — came from the ideas, support, and kindness of those around me.
This journey wouldn’t have been possible without you. Thank you for being a part of it.
Every day, I listen, learn, and grow. And with time, step by step, I finally opened my own coworking space — a place I now call home.
