In a few years, things might change a lot. I wouldn't make plans from now. Also, Danang is developing a lot. In just a couple of years, I bet we'll have big shopping malls and first class resorts to highly compete with Thailand, Indonesia, KL etc.

I understand I first went to Vietnam in 2006 and especially聽 in Saigon it has changed a lot..I just want to talk to people聽 who live in Da Nang to hear first hand the pros and cons .if anyone can tell me where the best place to meet expats ,have a beer and discuss how it is in Da Nang cheers

i am heading to Da Nang at the end of Nov. early Dec. and would like to know the area or restaraunt-bar that expats hang out at...i am thinking of retiring there in a couple of years and want to ask some questions聽 and get some information about living there

One general tip:

The M峄� An area of 膼脿 N岷祅g, adjacent to M峄� Kh锚 Beach, has a lot of bars where expats hang out at night.

There are lots of apartments and Hotel/Apartments in this area where many of us live.

During the day some hang at an area called "The Library", on the beach, directly across the street from the "Holiday Beach" resort.



In the evening (especially around 8 PM or so) a number of open-air places along Ng么 Thi S峄� (street) and Ho脿ng K岷� Vi锚m (street) start to fill up with all flavors of 海角乱伦s and some locals.

Most of the streets that run North/South, connecting those other two, are named "An Th瓢峄�ng" followed by a number (with some exceptions).

I suggest starting at An Th瓢峄�ng 1 and crisscrossing the area up to about An Th瓢峄�ng 10 (Twenty Seven Coffee - Pub is on this street).

Consider morning crawls of coffee spots in addition to evening Bar hops.

Also, there is a Facebook group:

"Da Nang / Hoian 海角乱伦s Support Forum" where you might find helpful info, as well as a ton of SPAM from local landlords.

Cheers!

Thank you for your info,,that was very聽 hope to meet you in Da Nang聽 in Dec cheers
