Today’s provincial lesson is all about the province of Da Nang. Doing these posts about individual provinces has taught me a great deal about Viet Nam. I already loved my daughter’s birth country, but writing these posts has helped me appreciate it even more. Viet Nam is a country rich in culture and history and full of amazing people.
Da Nang is located in Central Viet Nam and is made up of varying types of terrain
As one of Viet Nam’s major cities, it is a large economic and industrial force. Da Nang ranks third economically after Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi.
Da Nang is home to 4 universities, 10 other colleges and many high schools- Da Nang was home to a large American air base during the war
Industries: textile production, sea agriculture, forestry, embroidery
