Therefore, this beautiful coastal city has excellently secured third place in Time Out magazine's list of the 8 most ideal destinations in Asia in 2025, becoming a source of pride for Vietnamese tourism.
Time Out considers Asian destinations based on criteria such as: not being crowded, having a diverse range of entertainment and dining options... Accordingly, Da Nang was chosen for its numerous attractions, rich culinary scene, and increasingly innovative travel experiences.

"Located between Son Tra Mountain and the East Sea, Da Nang city has long been a favorite beach destination for many tourists in the region. Always known for its charm, this 'coastal gem' is rapidly developing in all aspects of tourism," Time Out noted.
With the ambition to become one of the world's leading culinary destinations, Da Nang has continuously strived for innovation and improvement. In 2025, this beautiful coastal city will officially launch a series of unique culinary tourism products, the most prominent of which is the "Da Nang Food Tour" campaign.
With the "Da Nang Culinary Passport" in hand, visitors will experience a unique culinary journey, from making rice paper rolls and catching fish to enjoying traditional dishes in the cozy atmosphere of local families. In addition, the "digital culinary map" will help visitors easily discover and find attractive dining locations, from casual eateries to upscale restaurants.

Da Nang's tourism products will also be revamped and put into operation in 2025, including the "Revolution Express" steam train, which has been restored to its original form. The train operates on the Hue - Da Nang railway line, passing through Hai Van Pass, the most beautiful section of the North-South railway line with sections through passes, railway bridges, and tunnels.
Leading the list of top travel destinations in Asia next year is Sumba, Indonesia's pristine island with picturesque beaches, according to a nearly 60-year-old travel website. Second is Siargao Island, a popular surfing spot in the Philippines.
