Tet in Da Nang comes vividly alive through every frame. More than festive decorations, it is the feeling of seasonal transition spreading across the city, along the coast, and within everyday life. An early-year spring journey thus becomes a journey of emotions – where every moment carries joy, togetherness, and hope for a new beginning.
Amid the rhythm of modern life, Da Nang opens up many spaces for visitors to “Chạm về nguyên bản” – to return to what is authentic through each moment – from bustling urban scenes to the expansive spring sea, from signature events to quiet pauses that restore energy. Each photograph, therefore, does more than capture a view; it preserves a very personal emotional state of the first days of the year.

In the city center, Tet is clearly present in the lively pace of life and festive colors spreading along the streets. Spring flowers, decorative lights, and New Year installations create vibrant backdrops for early-year photos. Among the flow of people enjoying spring outings, radiant smiles and spontaneous New Year encounters naturally connect, shaping a warm atmosphere of reunion – a very distinctive Tet in Da Nang.
Leaving the urban area behind, spring opens toward the sea. On the first mornings of the year, Da Nang’s coastline appears open and serene in gentle sunlight, clear skies, and refreshing breezes. The seaside space brings a sense of peace and relaxation – a gentle touch that balances the city’s festive energy and sets a positive tone for the journey ahead.
During Tet, every street corner, beach, and everyday moment in Da Nang can become a memorable frame. Below are suggestions for spring photo spots imbued with the colors of Tet and the spirit of Da Nang, so you can fully capture the emotions of your early-year journey.
Check in at Flower Streets – Capturing the Tet Vibe of Da Nang
The Tet atmosphere in Da Nang is most vivid at flower markets and spring flower streets across the city. The golden hues of apricot blossoms, chrysanthemums, and marigolds blend with the lush green kumquat trees heavy with fruit, accented by hanging flowers, lanterns, red envelopes, and traditional decorations – creating lively spring scenes where every click of the camera yields a beautiful photo.
From the breezy flower street along the Han River, the radiant space at Tien Son Sports Palace, Pham Hung – Nguyen Xuan Lam Street in Hoa Xuan Ward, March 24 Square in Ban Thach Ward, to streets such as Nguyen Hue, Hoang Dieu, Ngo Gia Tu, Pham Hong Thai, Thai Phien, Ly Thuong Kiet, Nguyen Truong To, Cua Dai in Hoi An Ward… and vibrant spring flower markets, each destination opens up its own rhythm of spring. No need for elaborate angles – just stroll among the blossoms, capture a smile, a flowing ao dai, or a sparkle of spring sunlight, and you will already have warm, youthful, and inspiring images for the New Year.
Wearing Traditional Ao Dai in the Spring Atmosphere
During Tet, the ao dai becomes a delicate bridge between tradition and contemporary life in Da Nang. Cultural spaces, architectural landmarks, and everyday settings across the city and surrounding areas turn into natural backdrops, where the gentle beauty of ao dai blends seamlessly with spring colors.
Han Market offers lively frames with vibrant fruits, bustling shopping scenes, and an intimate, everyday atmosphere. The trio of Linh Ung Pagodas (Son Tra Ward, Ba Na Ward, and Ngu Hanh Son Ward) or Dong Dinh Museum opens up tranquil spaces where ao dai stands out amid traditional architecture and lush greenery.
For those seeking cultural depth, the Confucius Temple in Hoi An, Ba Mu Temple, and Hoi An Ancient Town evoke solemn, time-honored settings, where architecture and historical layers create richly Asian backdrops. In such scenery, every step and posture becomes more deliberate, so that the ao dai is not merely a traditional garment, but a symbol of identity and continuity through time.
Along the way, local cafés – especially those with trendy décor – become gentle stopovers, where even the lightest moment is enough to preserve the full feeling of Tet.
Check in at Da Nang’s Iconic Landmarks
Da Nang’s iconic landmarks remain favorite Tet photo destinations for many visitors. Areas such as Dragon Bridge, Love Bridge, the riverside promenade, the Japanese Covered Bridge, and Hoi An Ancient Town offer signature perspectives closely associated with the city’s image.
During Tet, these familiar places become more vibrant with spring outings, decorative lighting, and festive colors. Each photo taken here not only records a landmark, but also captures personal emotions in the early-year journey through Da Nang.
Relax by the Spring Sea of Da Nang
This spring, Da Nang’s beaches are refreshed with a series of creative check-in installations, opening new spaces to mark personal moments amid open natural scenery. Without heavy staging, each design harmonizes with the seascape, subtle yet expressive enough to become a perfect anchor for emotional photographs.
At East Sea Park, the check-in space reflects a youthful, lively spirit – ideal for capturing joyful New Year moments. At Ha Khe Beach, the pace slows down, allowing each frame to convey calmness and serenity by the spring sea. Meanwhile, An Bang, Cua Dai, and Tam Thanh beaches offer distinct cultural tones, where sea, people, and local spaces create unique impressions.
These seaside installations not only beautify the landscape, but also open a new way to feel Da Nang’s coastal tourism: gentle, intimate, and emotionally rich. Here, every photo preserves not just a scene, but a personal moment – a footprint on the sand, a gaze toward the sea, or a quiet pause as spring unfolds.
Tourist Attractions and Tourism Businesses
Beyond iconic landmarks, the Tet atmosphere in Da Nang also spreads vividly across tourist areas and tourism businesses. Ba Na Hills glows with spring colors among the clouds, VinWonders Nam Hoi An brings lively entertainment to the start of the year, Hoi An Memories Island reveals emotional cultural layers, while cafés such as Trinh Café become gentle stopovers to preserve intimate spring moments.
Each space carries a different shade of Tet – lively, fresh, refined, or tranquil – offering visitors rich, emotional check-in photos linked to their journey of discovering Da Nang in the first days of the year.
Preserving Tet Moments in Da Nang with Family
From urban streets to spring beaches, from festive spaces to peaceful pauses, Da Nang opens many ways for visitors to record early-year memories in their own style. Each photo is not just a check-in, but a memory of a spring journey – where personal emotions blend with the rhythm of the city during Tet.
Spring travel in Da Nang, therefore, is not merely a trip, but a journey of preserving fresh, warm, and inspiring moments for the year ahead.
