Things to See & Do at Ba Na Hills in April
During April, visitors can go to these attractions in Ba Na Hills: Golden Hands Bridge (the bridge with two giant hands), Le Jardin d’Amour (a cluster of flower gardens), Debay Wine Cellar (a 100-years-old French wine cellar), giant Shakyamuni Buddha Statue (27 meters tall), Linh Ung Ba Na Pagoda (the oldest and holiest temple), French Village (a complex of medieval style buildings), Saint Denis Church, Helios Waterfall, Ba Na Hills Brewery, King Peak or Top of Nui Chua Mountain at elevation of 1,487 meters, Lunar Castle, Fantasy Park (amusement park), Wax Museum, Atlas Statue, Eclipse Square,… Around the park, these activities are also fun to do: alpine coasters, funicular rides, rock climbing, amusement rides, Vietnamese folk games,…
In April, there are two Vietnamese national holidays celebrated: Hung kings festival and then Reunification day (coupled with International Labor day). Vietnamese people will have a few days off to relax and travel in these holidays.
+ Hung kings festival occurs on the 10th day of the 3rd month in the lunar calendar, so on the Gregorian calendar (solar calendar), its day is not same in different years. Traditionally, local people often go to the temple to commemorate the kings and their own ancestors. For that reason, nothing too special is seen at Ba Na Hills. Meaning that if visiting this place in Hung kings festival, the experience is similar to normal days.
+ Reunification day occurs on 30th April. In this day in 1975, the Vietnam War ended, leading to the unification of North Vietnam and South Vietnam. At Ba Na Hills, to celebrate this important day, flags of Vietnam are hung in all streets and buildings. On squares, dancers from different continents wear a red shirt with golden star, and bring exciting performances. At buffet restaurants, many special foods just made for the holiday and foods which Vietnamese people eat during the war, are served. Meaning that if visiting Ba Na Hills in the Reunification day holiday, visitors will have a good experience and cheer the victory date with the locals.
Another special event in April at Ba Na Hills is the Flower festival (or sometimes Summer festival). In which, visitors will see colorful flowers across the park, and sure, have many photo opportunities.
To eat, all restaurants and stalls are opened in April. Book a buffet if want to try different cuisines at an affordable price. Unless, just go to restaurants where the favourite cuisine or type of food is served (such as western, Thai, Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, Italian, Korean, etc). At outdoor food courts, barbecues and craft/draught beers are available throughout the day. See more information & details

Itinerary to Visit Ba Na Hills In 1 Day
First time visitors will be a bit confused when sightseeing Ba Na Hills. To make the trip easier, please remember to take a map in ticket offices at the park’s main entrance or in the cable car (available in English/Vietnamese/Korean/Chinese/Thai). Secondly, if possible, go to the Hoi An Station and take the cable car to Golden Hands Bridge first. After that, explore other areas in the same mountain. The other portion of Ba Na Hills is located on another mountain, so visitors need to take the cable car again (at the station near Golden Hands Bridge, Bordeaux Station). After taking off the cable car, continue discovering the park. See full itinerary for self-guided visitors

Visit Golden Hands Bridge in April
One of the best known attractions in Ba Na Hills for foreign visitors is Golden Hands Bridge. This footbridge is 150 meters long, supported by two giant hands which rise out from the mountain and jungle. It’s wonderful to sightsee, take photos or make videos. On a sunny day, visitors will catch a beautiful panoramic view of the areas below (stretching from high cloudy mountains to the horizon on the sea). Golden Bridge is a must see.
April is in a high tourist season in the area. Therefore, Golden Hands Bridge at Ba Na Hills is usually crowded. Try to be here before the crowds come (taking the earliest cable car at 8:00 am) or just before the sunset (use google search to know the exact sunset time). Without people or many people, the best photos/videos can be taken. See more information & details

How to Avoid the Crowd at Ba Na Hills in April
During April, it’s very crowded at Ba Na Hills. So, if do not want to see too many people or long queues, visitors should go in the early morning or late afternoon-evening. The park and the cable car open at 8:00 am, so it’s needed to start the trip at 6:45-7:00 am in Da Nang and 6:15-6:30 am in Hoi An. If going from Hue city, please try to visit Ba Na Hills in the afternoon. Private transport is a must to save time (actually not expensive to book) and tickets should be reserved in advance to cut the queue at ticket offices. Going with a local guide is a smart choice because he/she knows the park well, and can tailor the itinerary that is just for you. See more information & details
