I feel Da Nang is an extremely safe city. Very similar to the cities in Thailand. People are very friendly.
When I walk on my own during the night nobody is cat calling me. Also the Buddhism culture makes ppl here very calm

Vietnam, a narrow Southeast Asian country stretching over 1,650 km from north to south, is known for its breathtaking natural beauty, rich cultural history, and vibrant city life. Nestled between the South China Sea to the east, and Laos and Cambodia to the west, the country displays a mesmerising blend of enchanting beaches, verdant mountains, terraced rice fields, and busy urban landscapes. Vietnam's highlights include the UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Ha Long Bay and the ancient town of Hoi An, the bustling city of Ho Chi Minh with its French colonial landmarks, and the capital, Hanoi, famous for its centuries-old architecture and a rich food culture with notable dishes such as Pho and Banh Mi. The allure of Vietnam is augmented by its fascinating war history, displayed in numerous war remnants sites, and the complex array of ethnicities that comprise its vibrant culture.

Da Nang is a vibrant, coastal city located in central Vietnam, known for its breathtaking landscapes, stunning beaches, and rich history. This city is a unique blend of traditional Vietnamese culture and modern amenities, making it a must-visit destination for travelers. Its vibrant cityscape is adorned with beautiful sites like the Dragon Bridge, which breathes fire and water on weekends, and the Marble Mountains, an array of five hills made of limestone and marble. The city also boasts its famous My Khe Beach, known as one of the most attractive beaches on the planet, and the world-renowned Golden Bridge, held by two enormous stone hands. Da Nang is also a gateway to the ancient town of Hoi An and the imperial city of Hue, providing an excellent base for exploring central Vietnam's other attractions.

Da Nang

Da Nang is one of my favourite cities I’ve visited. From swimming in the ocean, to sampling the local specialty mì quàng, to visiting the Lady Buddha at the mountaintop temple, to exploring the brightly coloured and beautifully lit bridges after sunset. It has a lot to offer! I’d highly recommend visiting, and don’t forget to visit neighboring Hoi An for their incredible lanterns and delicious cao lau.

I loved Da Nang a lot more than Nha Trang. It feels more artsy and inviting. 
I absolutely loved the coffee culture, where every street has a beautiful cafe that you want to sit in all afternoon. There is a more hip and art vibe to the city, which is what I enjoy in a place. There are a lot of live music spots and bars, so it seems like the nightlife is still vibrant.
