Resort in the Trường Sơn Mountains, Vietnam From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bà Nà Hill Station (or Bà Nà Hills or Sun World Ba Na Hills) is a hill station and resort located in the Trường Sơn Mountains west of the city of Da Nang, in central Vietnam. The station, advertised as "the Da Lat of Danang province" by local tourism authorities, was founded in 1919 by French colonists, and later expended by Sun Group. Being located 1,500 metres above sea level, it has a view of the East Sea and the surrounding mountains.[1]
Due to the elevation of the resort, the temperature is cooler than the environment near the coast.[2] Linh Ứng Temple is situated near the station, with a cable car nearby to carry tourists to and from the resort.[3]
The Ba Na Cable Car, opened on 29 March 2013, holds the world record for "longest non-stop single track cable car", at 5,801 metres (19,032 ft) in length.[4] Its latest tourist attraction is the Golden Bridge (Cầu Vàng).
The hill station is located at an elevation of 1,500 metres (4,900 ft), 42 kilometres (26 mi) from Da Nang.[5]
in 2021, Ba Na Hills added their sixth cable car to the park, made by Doppelmayr and managed by Sun World, Sun Group.
