The excursion

Marble Mountains The tour “Marble Mountains, Am Phu cave and Monkey Mountains group tour” starts from the morning where our Guide will pick you up from the hotel. Firstly, we will visit Marble Mountain, also known as Ngu Hanh Son , is the group of five hills, made of limestone and marble. They look like 5 fingers lying close to the sea. There are several caves, caverns, pagodas, many stairs and 2 spectacular viewing points. They are also home to several buddhist sanctuaries and hindu grottoes which are much visited places of worship for the local population. The marble mountain has become one of the must-see destinations for those who enjoy the beauty of nature and want a respite from the busy urban areas. At the foot of the mountains there is a traditional marble fine art village which is over 300 years old. You will admire its talented craftsmen, their creativity and their uniquely beautiful works. Say good bye to Marble Mountains we will come back local family for Vietnamese lunch. Am Phu cave After lunch, we continue to visit Am Phu cave (the hell cave). We will learn many interesting philosophies of buddhism. The Am Phu cave features a harmonious combination of folklore and buddhism’s valuable philosophy of humanity. The scenes of horror mentioned-above intend to educate human beings about doing good deeds in life and to ‘turn over a new leaf’ to stop a bad habit or make a positive change to their characters. Monkey Mountains Returning to the bus we will continue to explore Monkey Mountains, here we will enjoy panorama view of Da Nang from high position. In Monkey Mountain, you will visit Linh Ung pagoda,one of the biggest pogoda in Da Nang city and the highest avalokitesvara bodhisattva (lady buddha) statue in vietnam – 67m.
