Dragon Bridge in Da Nang is an absolute must-see for anyone visiting Vietnam. It's not just the longest bridge in the country, stretching an impressive 666 meters, but it's also a spectacle of lights, fire, and water that will leave you in awe. Nestled in Da Nang City, this engineering marvel is designed to resemble a majestic golden dragon.
Spanning the Han River, the six-lane bridge provides convenient routes to the sun-kissed shores of My Khe Beach and Non Nuoc Beach, making it a favorite haunt for photographers chasing that perfect shot. Officially opened in 2013, its completion marked the 38th anniversary of Da Nang City’s liberation. The dragon design is steeped in history: according to local legends dating back to the Ly Dynasty, dragons symbolize power, nobility, and good fortune.
For an unforgettable experience, try to catch the bridge's weekend shows. Every Saturday and Sunday night, the dragon breathes fire and water, a spectacle that draws crowds of both locals and tourists. The combination of the vibrant lights reflecting off the river and the excitement in the air is something you truly have to experience firsthand. So, grab your camera, your sense of adventure, and get ready to be wowed by a bridge that’s anything but ordinary.
