The Architectural Marvels of a UNESCO Capital City

(10) Where Was I ?

It is a Capital City, and the old part was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1982. The city lies on a bay with a protected harbour.

It is a place where you dance the salsa, drink mojitos, and smoke the odd cigar or two. The city is renowned for its literature, architecture, politics, folklore, music, and of course, the Rum!

Enjoy your visit to this vibrant City.

Why Da Nang is One Of My Favourite Travel Destinations

Do you have a favourite place you have visited? Where is it?

I have visited several countries over the past twenty years or so. One of my favourite places I have visited, has to be Vietnam. I spent a wonderful two weeks in Da Nang. The culture, scenery, food, and especially the people…they were so friendly and welcoming.

Da Nang is also known as the city of bridges.

The Beach! 🌊

Beach or mountains? Which do you prefer? Why?

As a child I lived by the ocean (not as nice as a this one), on the South Coast of England. There wasn’t any mountains, so the beach was my playground.

My Grandmother would swim in the sea everyday, even in the winter! 🥶🥶. I didn’t join her….😂

(7) Where am I?

This historic town is located on the Mediterranean coast, known as the Turquoise coast. It has a vast sweeping bay with the Taurus mountains as a backdrop.

The town is built into the hillside with panoramic views of the surrounding landscape and sea. It has a beautiful harbour, which was formerly, a small coastal trading port.

Not to mention, the glorious roof top restaurants! 😋😋😋
