Back to Da Nang City after 3 months in Saigon.
After so much rain, it was nice to find myself under the dome of clear blue sky in Da Nang.
Besides, a much quieter city with so much less road traffic than in Saigon; I love it.
Moreover, they have large spaces with zero motorbikes on them: the Han River embankment (above) and the seafront sidewalk with the beach:
The beach is almost empty in some spots and there is a crowd in many other places:
The city center is a sort of amusing, with a drop of the colonial French charm here and there:
And good-looking handmade Jesuses in souvenir shops:
Do you see those crosses made of dark dotted wood? That's the palm timber. The coconut tree or toddy palm.
And these are classical Vietnamese furniture:
Red plastic chairs and tables are a signature style of Vietnamese streets. According to statistics, red tables are less likely to be hit by motorbikes, so there is a reason for everything. Lol.
The trouble is that I was in Da Nang for a long while in 2023.
I've had enough of Da Nang,
enough of Vietnam.
Need a change.
Leaving the country in a few days.

I took these images with a Nikkor 70-300mm and Nikkor 50mm on a full-frame DSLR Nikon D750 on August 4-5, 2024, in Da Nang, Vietnam.
