Walking Da Nang’s River Promenade – Restaurants, Bars & Local Vibes

Walking Da Nang’s river promenade on the city side reveals a completely different vibe from the tourist beaches. From the Dragon Bridge heading north, you’ll find Michelin-recommended restaurants, rooftop bars, local coffee shops, riverside sculptures, and real Vietnamese street life. This is where locals fish, tourists explore Han Market, and river cruise boats line the docks. If you’re planning to visit or move to Da Nang, this side of the city deserves your attention.

Bamboo 2 Bar
An Thoi (Michelin recommended)

  1. Love the opening of your videos especially the Christmas ones, very poetic and well done. Thank you for sharing and all the hard work putting in to it. Happy Holidays πŸŽ„πŸ₯‚

  2. When I was 10 years old, I jumped down right at this section of the river to swim with my friends. (where the ferry boats that carried passengers across the river). That was 48 years ago. What an incredible walk along the Han River! It’s so refreshing to see the different city side of Da Nang from my childhood memory, especially with that beautiful sunny weather after the typhoon. I love how you highlighted the local vibes, from the fishermen to those unique marble sculptures. It’s really helpful for anyone planning a move or a visit to see the mix of modern development and authentic street life. Thanks for sharing this peaceful perspective of the river promenade. Can't wait for the night walk to see those LEDs in action!
