During the day, when Da Nang experiences hot and sunny weather with high temperatures, many tourists choose to leave the city and head to green spaces to enjoy the cool, fresh air.

With its stunning winding roads and cool climate, Hai Van Pass has become a popular tourist destination in recent days.

According to observations, many people had been going up the pass since early morning to chase clouds and drink coffee. At the summit of Hai Van Pass, many tourists happily enjoyed the cool air and watched the clouds drift over the mountains.

From here, visitors can also see the entire city of Da Nang from above. Many people didn't miss the opportunity to take photos with the magnificent natural scenery of this place.

Mr. Le Khanh Duong (a tourist from Hanoi) said: “Unlike the city center, the atmosphere here is cooler and more pleasant. I am very happy to be standing amidst the majestic natural scenery and to have conquered this wonder of Vietnam's mountain pass.”

With the Hai Van Pass now open to free entry, the pass road is bustling with traffic these days. At many times of the day, the section at the top of the pass is congested with vehicles due to the large number of tourists flocking to visit.

Many groups of people from Hue, returning to Da Nang for study and work after the September 2nd holiday, also took the opportunity to gather and admire the scenery along Hai Van Pass.

Located about 10km northeast of Da Nang city center, Son Tra Peninsula is also attracting a large number of tourists these days.

With its vast primeval forests and cool, fresh air, this place has become an ideal destination to escape the heat.

According to observations, the peak time for tourists to flock to Son Tra during the holiday is early morning and late afternoon.

Many families and couples lined up chairs in long rows, enjoying the view while sipping on cool drinks.

For Mr. Tran Phuoc Lam (26 years old, a tourist from Quang Nam), the National Day holiday on September 2nd is an opportunity for him to leave the city and seek out green spaces.

"Life in the crowded city sometimes makes me feel suffocated. I want to take advantage of this year's September 2nd holiday to 'change things up,' leave the familiar streets and find green spaces to immerse myself in nature," Mr. Lam shared.

Many foreign tourists visiting Da Nang also choose Son Tra Mountain as a stopover point. Related services such as food and beverage sales in the area have also flourished.
