Tourists line up to climb Son Tra mountain to escape the scorching heat of over 40 degrees Celsius.

According to observations by Thanh Nien reporters on April 30th, the road leading to Linh Ung Pagoda (Son Tra Peninsula, Da Nang City) was congested due to the excessive number of vehicles. Most locals and tourists chose Son Tra Peninsula to enjoy the sea view and the cool air, as the weather in the city center was hot and humid.

Linh Ung Pagoda was crowded with tourists seeking refuge from the heat.

Ms. Ho Thanh Hoa (a tourist from Gia Lai province) said that her family was "shocked" by the extremely hot temperature when they arrived in Da Nang City. After being recommended by some acquaintances to visit Son Tra Peninsula to explore the "green lung" and Linh Ung Pagoda, she immediately followed their advice.

"Visiting Linh Ung Pagoda under the canopy of ancient trees and enjoying the sea breeze felt much cooler. My family will have lunch on Son Tra Peninsula to explore the mountains and forests. Once the sun sets and the heat subsides, I'll return to the city to go swimming at the beach," Ms. Hoa recounted her Da Nang travel itinerary for April 30th.

Despite the hot weather, there were a large number of international tourists visiting Linh Ung Pagoda.

Visitors pray in the main hall of Linh Ung Pagoda. According to the pagoda's regulations, if visitors wear shorts or capri pants, they must wear a headscarf to ensure respect when entering the main hall.

At the Marble Mountains scenic area (Da Nang City) on April 30th, thousands of tourists flocked to visit the site from early morning.

Many tourists braved the sun, lining up in long queues to take the elevator up Marble Mountains.

Over the past few days, during the April 30th - May 1st holiday, the beaches in Da Nang City have been constantly overcrowded as locals and tourists flocked to the sea to have fun and cool off by swimming.
