Da Nang is known as the "city of bridges". Among them, the most important are the four bridges spanning the Hàn River: the Hàn River Bridge, the Thuận Phước Bridge, the Dragon Bridge, and the Trần Thị Lý Bridge.

The Hàn River Bridge

The funding comes from the contributions of local residents. This bridge is a symbol of the will of the people of Da Nang and the dynamism of the city. The bridge is 487.7m long, 12.9m wide, and consists of 11 spans, each 33m long.

When the clock strikes midnight, this bridge slowly rotates 90 degrees, creating a path for boats to pass. At 1 AM, the bridge returns to its original position. This bridge is ranked among the 15 unique movable bridges in the world.

The Thuận Phước Bridge

The longest suspension bridge in Vietnam, the Thuận Phước Bridge is 2,119m long and 18m wide. It connects Hai Châu District (Da Nang) with the Tiên Sa Port of the Sơn Trà Peninsula.

At night, the Thuận Phước Bridge stands out with its sparkling lights. The lighting system mimics fireworks and rainbows to attract tourists' attention.


The Trần Thị Lý Bridge

The Trần Thị Lý Bridge resembles a sail in the wind. This bridge is 731m long and 34.5m wide. Its cost amounts to over 1,700 billion VND. On the bridge, visitors can admire the peaceful scenery of the Hàn River and a panoramic view of Da Nang city.

The Dragon Bridge

The Dragon Bridge, 666m long, has the appearance of a dragon soaring towards the sea. Total investment: over 1,700 billion VND. It includes 6 lanes for vehicles and 2 for pedestrians.

At night, a system of 15,000 lights is turned on. At that moment, the bridge becomes a proud yellow dragon. At 9:00 PM on weekends and holidays, you can see this dragon spouting water and fire.
