Marble Mountains
Tour program: 2:00 pm & return 6:30 pm.
The tour starts afternoon at 2 pm where our Guide will pick you up from the hotel to start our “Afternoon Marble Mountains – Am Phu Cave – Monkey Mountains small group tour”.
Firstly, we will visit Marble Mountain, also known as Ngu Hanh Son, is the group of five hills, made of limestone and marble. They look like 5 fingers lying close to the sea. There are several caves, caverns, pagodas, many stairs and 2 spectacular viewing points. They are also home to several buddhist sanctuaries and hindu grottoes which are much visited places of worship for the local population. The Marble Mountain, also famous during the Vietnam war, has become one of the must-see destinations for those who enjoy the beauty of nature and want a respite from the busy urban areas.
Am Phu Cave
After that, we continue to visit Am Phu Cave (the hell cave). We will have the opportunity to admire somewhat mysterious landscape, as well as understand more about the philosophy of life and the law of karma – the spiritual principle of cause and effect where intent and actions of a person influence the future.
At the foot of the mountains there is a traditional marble fine art village which is over 300 years old. You will admire its talented craftsmen, their creativity and their uniquely beautiful works.
Monkey Mountains
Returning to the bus we will continue to explore Monkey Mountains, here we will enjoy panorama view of Da Nang from high position. In Monkey Mountain, you will visit Linh Ung pagoda, one of the biggest pogoda in Da Nang city and the highest avalokitesvara bodhisattva (lady buddha) statue in Vietnam – 67m. We have plenty of time to take photo and relaxing at this beautiful area if we are lucky, we can see a lot of monkey around the pagoda.
End tour and transfer back to your hotel in Hoi An and Da Nang (for Da Nang we charge extra).
