📍Ba Na Hills|Fairytale world on the top of Da Nang mountain, satisfying imagination of nature and dreams

Before setting foot on Ba Na Hills, I have imagined the appearance of "Buddha's Hand Golden Bridge" countless times in my mind; when I really stood on the skywalk held up by the giant hand, the clouds were floating at my feet. At that moment, I knew that this was not a legend, but a miracle in reality.



🚡 9:00AM Arrived at the cable car station, and the journey through the clouds began

We set off from Da Nang city early in the morning and arrived at the Ba Na Hills Cable Car Station in about 45 minutes. This cable car has won the Guinness World Record. The total length is nearly 6 kilometers, connecting the top of the mountain with an altitude of more than 1,400 meters.

The cable car passes through the primeval forest and the cloud layer along the way. The eyes are sometimes blue and sometimes hazy, and the feet are full of green, like entering a fantasy forest. When the cable car rushed out of the clouds, the outline of the French castle in the distance appeared on the top of the mountain, just like an animation scene.



🌉 10:00AM Buddha's Hand Golden Bridge: The first step to open the door to the fairyland

As soon as you walk out of the cable car station, you will see the most dreamy landmark of Bana Hills - the Golden Bridge.

The bridge seems to be held high by two huge hands. The golden railings and the bridge body are shining in the sun. There are light clouds under your feet, as if you are stepping on the sky. Walking on the bridge, you don't need any filters, and the camera will look like a poster no matter how you take it.

📸 Tips:
• If you want to avoid the crowds, it is recommended to take photos in the early morning or evening
• The recommended angle for taking photos is to take a side view + an upward angle, which helps to show the shocking proportions of the palm



🏰 11:00AM Strolling in the French Village: A pseudo-overseas European town experience

Take another cable car to the top of the mountain and you will arrive at the "French Village". The entire park imitates the medieval European town architecture, with churches, fountains, small squares and cobblestone roads, like traveling to the south of France in an instant.

There are street artists performing, sausage and beer stalls, and street corner coffee shops. I ordered a croissant and hot cocoa at a French bakery, and sat at an outdoor table watching the bubbles floating in the square. Everything was relaxed and romantic.



🎠 1:00PM Indoor Park + Garden Maze: Suitable for parents and children and those who still have a childlike heart

Don't think that Bana Hills is only about scenery! There is also a large indoor park in the park, including carousels, indoor roller coasters, bumper cars, interactive games, etc., so you don’t have to worry about rain.

Then go to Le Jardin D’Amour Garden Area, where you can find gardens with different themes such as the Love Garden, the Myth Garden, and the Grapevine Garden... one after another. The most recommended one is the wisteria trellis that can create a dreamlike maze.



📌 A brief summary of the itinerary in Ba Na Hills: a must-see guide!
• 🎟 Recommended ticket: choose cable car + park pass, one ticket to play all (about 750,000 VND)
• 🕒 Recommended stay time: about 6-7 hours (it is recommended to arrive before 9 am to go up the mountain)
• 🍴 Dining options: There are buffet restaurants, roadside stalls, and French restaurants to choose from
• 👟 Dressing suggestions: It is recommended to wear non-slip casual shoes + windproof thin jackets (it is occasionally foggy and cold on the mountain)



🌤 When I left, I looked back at the golden bridge in the mountains for the last time, as if saying to me: Goodbye, it’s better to say, wait for you to come again.

If you are looking for a scenic spot with natural beauty, photo taking, and European atmosphere, then Ba Na Mountain is the answer you can’t miss.
This is not the Vietnamese version of Disney, nor is it a mountain resort, but a real "off-the-ground" dream.
