The most famous and attractive feature of Golden Bridge, Ba Na Hills. I was very excited to see it before arriving at this place. We arrived at 10 o’clock in the morning by a GRAB car.
Upon arrival, we went inside and met the agency that arranges all the trip details at Bana Hills. We paid the full price for the Bana Hills experience, and then they showed us the map. We started walking, and after some time, we had to climb to reach the cable car.
Location
Ba Na Hills, located in Hòa Ninh, Hòa Vang, Da Nang, Vietnam.
Getting to the Golden Bridge is part of the adventure! From Da Nang city center, it’s about a 30-40 minute drive. I recommend grabbing a taxi or using a ride-hailing app like Grab for convenience. If you’re feeling adventurous, consider joining a tour that offers shuttle services to Ba Na Hills. Google Map

Ba Na Cable Car
I enjoyed these things for the first time in my life. It was one of the longest and highest cable car systems in the world, offering spectacular views during the journey to the mountain peak. panning nearly 5,800 meters, it offers breathtaking panoramic views of the lush mountains and valleys below as you ascend to Ba Na Hills. There was very deep fog around it. Really beautiful! After arriving by cable car, we first arrived at a place called Golden Bridge.
Golden Bridge
That is the main attraction; we came to Ba Na Hills because of it. Omg!!!! When I first laid eyes on it, I was completely mesmerized by its stunning design, supported by enormous stone hands that seem to rise from the earth. Walking across the 150-meter span felt like stepping into a dream.
As I took each step, I was surrounded by breathtaking views of the mountains and valleys that seemed to stretch endlessly. The atmosphere was electric, with the sounds of laughter and awe echoing around me. It’s a spot that just begs for photos—every angle is more beautiful than the last!
French Village
The French Village was like a fair with a Western view. The decorations and structures were made to resemble real French architecture, which helped us feel like we were not in Vietnam, but in France. The cobblestone streets and charming architecture instantly captivated me. I loved wandering around, discovering cozy cafés and shops at every turn.
I couldn’t resist stopping at a quaint café for a warm croissant and a cup of coffee. The atmosphere was so inviting, and I took a moment to simply soak it all in. Every corner was a picture-perfect scene, making it hard to resist snapping a few photos.
Le Jardin D’amour (Love Garden)
After the French village we have arrived at the Garden with very beautiful flowers, decorations and statues. For captured photos this place is very famous for girls. As you stroll through the garden, you’ll be greeted by colorful flowers in full bloom, beautifully arranged along scenic pathways. It’s the perfect spot to relax and enjoy nature’s beauty. With its fragrant atmosphere and picturesque views, the Flower Garden offers a peaceful escape
Fantasy Park
After Love Garden, we arrived at Fantasy Park. There, we first enjoyed a Horror 3D game, which was really scary and realistic. This lively amusement park has something for everyone, and I couldn’t wait to explore. From the moment I walked in, I was surrounded by laughter and excitement.
I dove into the thrilling rides, feeling the adrenaline rush as I soared through the air. The 4D cinema was a highlight too; it felt like I was part of the action! I loved wandering through the various themed areas, each one bursting with fun activities and games.
Next, we headed to the very interesting Alpine Coaster ride. There was a long queue, and after an hour of waiting, we finally got on. There are many rides like the Drop Tower, Indoor Roller Coaster, etc., but we were particularly interested in the Alpine Coaster for the first time in our lives.
It was very enjoyable. They also have a still camera for capturing your photos while you’re on the ride. I didn’t notice at first, which is why my photos turned out very blurry. 😢 After the ride, they give you the captured photos, though you have to pay for them.
I would recommend noticing the camera and slowing down for a while in front of it after it captures your photo to get better pictures.
Afterward, we went to have lunch. There has available lunch for Asian, European with good taste.
Mountain Viewpoints
Everywhere we explored, the European decorations set the vibe. From one viewpoint, we beheld the full view of the long mountain range of Bana Hills. The moment I arrived, I was blown away by the breathtaking vistas. Standing there, surrounded by the beauty of lush valleys and distant peaks, I felt an overwhelming sense of peace.
As I took in the views, I couldn’t help but grab my camera and snap some photos—every angle was more stunning than the last. There’s something truly special about being up high, feeling the cool breeze and seeing nature’s canvas spread out before you.
If you’re a nature lover or just looking for a moment of serenity, these viewpoints are a must-visit.
Next to it, a road wound beautifully through the upper decorations. I walked along it, capturing memorable moments.
Wax Museum
This museum features celebrity sculptures. If you’re a fan of Hollywood artists, this section is perfect for taking selfies. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by lifelike figures of famous personalities from all walks of life. I couldn’t resist snapping selfies with my favorite stars and historical icons—it felt like I was meeting them in person!
It was a very wonderful moment of my life.
