Where should we go in Da Nang at night ? It is a common question for tourists visiting Da Nang to ask about the best places to go at night. The Vietnam Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism has a night tourism development project for 2025, which identifies Da Nang as one of three localities that must create a separate night entertainment complex. Da Nang has made significant progress towards offering a variety of night services for visitors to choose from.

Let’s take a look at some experiences with Danang FantastiCity:

Da Nang is famously referred to as the “city of bridges”. Tourists can stroll at night while enjoying the city’s breathtaking views on the various bridges that serve as the city’s symbol. These include the Dragon Bridge, the Han River Bridge, the Tran Thi Ly Bridge, and the Love Bridge. The Merdragon statue is located near the Love Bridge.

Visitors gather at Dragon Bridge to watch the fire and water spray performances on weekends. The show starts at 08:00 pm, and many tourists and residents gather on the bridge, on both sides of the Han River or nearby high buildings. Traffic is stopped at both ends of the bridge for 15 minutes during the show. To enjoy the water spray show, visitors are advised to choose a suitable standing direction, wear a raincoat, and bring an umbrella to avoid getting wet. It is recommended to arrive early, from 07:30 to 08:00 pm, to choose an excellent spot to watch the bridge.

Time of Dragon Bridge breathing fire and water: 09.00 pm every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night, and the major holidays

Han River Bridge is the country’s first rotary bridge, inaugurated in 2000. The bridge is 487.7m. The bridge is 12.9m wide and features 11 spans connecting Hai Chau and Son Tra districts via Le Duan and Pham Van Dong streets.

Rotary bridge time for tourists: From 23h00 to 00h00 on Saturdays and Sundays

Turning the Han River bridge aims to facilitate waterway transport and allow ships to pass through. Every day, around 11:00 pm, the middle section of the bridge rotates 90 degrees around its axis, aligning with the river’s flow, thus creating a passage for large ships. By around midnight, the bridge returns to its original position.

The Love Bridge in Da Nang has gained worldwide recognition, inspired by the famous love bridges. The bridge has an arc-shaped design with bright red heart-shaped light pillars lining its walls, illuminating the entire sky.

The “Carp turns dragon” symbol or Merdragon is a 7.5-meter-high sculpture, weighing almost 200 tons, crafted from five white marble blocks. It is currently installed on the Marina, facing the Han River in Da Nang. The carp’s body is carved out of solid scales, while the dragon head is inspired by the Li Dynasty dragon and is designed to spray water. The fish’s stylized tail symbolizes peace, prosperity, and solidarity. When you visit Da Nang, you should not miss the chance to take photos of the statue as it changes continuously into nine different colors, which is highly attractive.

The Tran Thi Ly Bridge is an architectural marvel that connects Hai Chau District, Son Tra District, and Ngu Hanh Son District, enhancing traffic capacity at the eastern gateway of Da Nang.

The Thuan Phuoc Bridge is located at the mouth of Da Nang Bay, where the Han River meets the sea. It connects two coastal roads, Nguyen Tat Thanh and Hoang Sa-Spratly.

The Han River Bridge was the first bridge to mark the development milestone of the city. It witnessed the transformation of the area east of the Han River. The Dragon Bridge and Tran Thi Ly Bridge, shaped like a dragon and a sail reaching out to the sea, respectively, represent the dynamic and continuous development of Da Nang. The Thuan Phuoc Bridge towers at the sea end, attracting people with its luxurious beauty and outstanding design, complemented by shimmering lights illuminating the vast water.

The Vietnam-Japan Friendship Pedestrian Bridge is a unique architectural masterpiece celebrating the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Vietnam and Japan. Mikazuki Group built the pedestrian bridge connecting Nguyen Tat Thanh Street to Xuan Thieu Beach. The bridge recently became operational and has been attracting tourists because of its unique night lighting technology.

The bridge’s beauty is not limited to its architectural details but also stands out in the lighting technology used at night. According to the investor, the bridge uses facade lighting, also known as façade lighting, every night.
