Rediscovering Vietnam at Christmas

I visited Da Nang, Vietnam, at the end of last year. It was my second trip to Vietnam, and my first to Da Nang. It was around Christmas time. I went to My Khe Beach, which was a beautiful place with gray water growling loudly all day long and white waves rushing into the soft sandy beach.

Also, I went to Bana Hill where there was a thick forest with many unfamiliar trees flourishing. I could take a cable car there, which was moving quickly as if flying high through the sky. I could see a white waterfall through dark green round-shaped leaves. It was truly picturesque scenery. Bana Hill was a kind of tall mountain, as its name connotes. I wondered how people could build many cafes, restaurants and so on at this high elevation. There were cafes, streets that were modeled after Paris........
