Escape the city bustle and explore the lush Son Tra Peninsula, often called Monkey Mountain, a beautiful nature reserve jutting into the sea near Da Nang. It's famed for the towering Lady Buddha statue at the Linh Ung Pagoda, which stands at 67 meters tall and watches over the city. The serene atmosphere and intricate temple architecture make this a significant spiritual site and a top place to visit in Da Nang.

The peninsula offers breathtaking views of Da Nang city and the bay from various points along its winding roads. It's a haven for nature lovers, home to rare red-shanked douc langurs (though sightings require luck and patience!) and pristine, less-crowded beaches. Renting a motorbike to explore Son Tra is a popular Da Nang adventure, offering freedom and stunning coastal scenery.
