Description
Enjoy a half-day tour to Lady Buddha, Monkey Mountain, Marble Mountain, and Am Phu Cave. Take in the amazing view of the coast from the Linh Ung Pagoda.
The Marble Mountains (Vietnamese: Ngu Hanh Son; literally "five elements mountains") is a popular sightseeing location in Da Nang because of its alluring beauty. Stone steps carved into the mountain lead to a Buddhist Pagoda. There are plenty of exercises going up with many steps for a beautiful view from the top of the mountain. We will then visit the stone village where the skilled local sculptors create many marble products. Then, you will go to Am Phu Cave where there is a replica of “Heaven and Hell”, eerie underground tunnels while listening to the clapping of bats' wings in the cave.
After visiting the Marble Mountains, we will go to the Monkey Mountain to see one of the most impressive pagodas in the area. At its top we will see the Linh Ung pagoda, built during the 18th century and which houses a 67-meter white statue of the Goddess of Mercy. It is the tallest Buddhist sculpture in Vietnam!
Finally, we will take you back to your hotel and we will end the tour after five hours of travel.
