Ba Na Hills is a sprawling hill station and entertainment complex located in the Truong Son Mountains west of Da Nang, Vietnam. Accessible via a scenic cable car ride, one of the longest in the world, the site offers a surreal blend of French colonial architecture, manicured gardens, and modern amusements. The centerpiece is the Golden Bridge, a giant pair of stone hands holding a pedestrian walkway, which has become an iconic photo spot. Visitors can explore a replica French village with cobblestone streets, a wine cellar, and a cathedral, as well as enjoy amusement park rides, a wax museum, and seasonal flower displays. The cool mountain air provides a refreshing escape from the coastal heat, and the panoramic views of the surrounding peaks and coastline are breathtaking. Ba Na Hills is a family-friendly destination that combines natural beauty with whimsical attractions.

Originally developed by French colonists in the early 20th century as a hill station for relaxation, Ba Na Hills was later abandoned. It was revived in the 2000s as a major tourist complex, with the Golden Bridge opening in 2018 to global acclaim.
