Description

Explore the Marble Mountains and learn about their wartime history on a guided tour from Da Nang. Visit the Am Phu Cave, Nuoc Man Base, K20 Liberation Base, and Tan Thai Fishing Village.
Begin your journey with a visit to the Marble Mountains, a landscape of limestone peaks, Buddhist temples, and hidden caves. Learn how the mountains were used by local people and revolutionary forces for shelter, communication, and other wartime activities during the Vietnam War.

Next, head to Am Phu Cave, a dramatic Buddhist representation of the underworld, with symbolic scenes of judgment, punishment, and the journey after death. Learn how the cave and surrounding mountain environment also form part of the wartime history of Marble Mountains.

Continue to Nuoc Man Base, an area connected with the military history of Da Nang during the Vietnam War. Learn how this area was used, why its location mattered, and how the surrounding communities were affected by years of conflict.

Next, visit the K20 Liberation Base, one of the more unusual stops on this experience. Learn about the revolutionary history of Da Nang and the difficult years when local communities lived under the pressure of war.

After exploring the history of war, slow down and experience the peaceful rhythm of Vietnamese coastal life at Tan Thai Fishing Village. See fishing boats, local homes, and the everyday activities of people whose lives are closely connected to the sea.

Finally, drive through the green mountain roads of Monkey Mountain and enjoy spectacular views of the coastline, sea, and city. Visit the impressive Lady Buddha statue, standing peacefully above the sea.
