This activity is the part of the annual program “Da Nang – The Summer Destination 2016”, organized by Da Nang Department of Tourism.

 

Da Nang has opened two private accesses for people with mobility disability. One access is located at Eastern Sea Park and the other is at the junction between Vo Nguyen Giap Road and Hoang Ke Viem Road (in front of Holiday Beach – Da Nang Hotel).
