From 'forgotten' to world's top iconic tourist destination

Sun World Ba Na Hills has awakened the Lord's mountain

Awakening the Mountain of God

"I regret not choosing Ba Na for the first days of exploring Vietnam, but it is true that we must save the best things for the last experience. This is a great destination, not only invested in money, but also full of energy and unique ideas" - the comment about Sun World Ba Na Hills by editor Nafis Abdullah during the journey to Vietnam broadcast 6 episodes on Astro Arena television channel has described in part the irresistible appeal of the tourist area on the top of Chua Mountain for international visitors.

Few people know that, before 2009, there was a Ba Na that only welcomed an average of 30,000 - 40,000 visitors per year, and there wasn't even a restaurant on the mountain. At that time, Da Nang people still had a saying: "If you haven't been there, you don't know Ba Na. Once you've been there, you'll know it's better to stay home."

It was not until Sun Group opened the first cable car line on March 25, 2009 that the Chua mountain area was awakened.

Iconic architectural works are constantly being renewed.

Up to now, every year, even every month, Ba Na Hills has new things, making tourists never get bored. The slogan "Ba Na Hills - the road to paradise" for the past 15 years still retains its value. And Ba Na is now not only a favorite destination for domestic tourists but also becomes an international-class destination, establishing its own position on the world tourism map.

In the country, Sun World Ba Na Hills has been honored by the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism four times in a row as the leading tourist area in Vietnam, and is an important driving force behind the impressive growth of Da Nang tourism. From 2009 to 2018, the number of visitors to Da Nang increased by 463%, and the number of visitors to Ba Na also increased more than 160 times. In 2019, with the opening of the Golden Bridge at Ba Na Hills, Da Nang welcomed 8.6 million visitors, more than 60% of whom came to Ba Na.

Internationally, the resort has also been awarded the title "Asia's Leading Theme Park" by the World Travel Awards (WTA) for four consecutive years. In 2020 and 2021, it was honored by WTA as the World's Leading Iconic Tourist Destination and the World's Leading Iconic Tourist Bridge for the Golden Bridge.

Ba Na is now not only a favorite destination for domestic tourists but also becomes an international-class destination.

A constantly new Ba Na

Sharing at the 10th anniversary of Sun World Ba Na Hills Tourist Area in 2018, Mr. Le Trung Chinh - Deputy Secretary of the City Party Committee, Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Da Nang City (currently Deputy Secretary of the City Party Committee, Chairman of the People's Committee of Da Nang City) expressed: "Ba Na Hills is one of the clear evidences for the role of the private economy in the development of Da Nang tourism in particular and Da Nang economy in general. We hope that in the near future, together with Sun World Ba Na Hills, Da Nang will have many other attractive destinations, to keep tourists staying in the city longer".

True to that expectation, Sun World Ba Na Hills constantly innovates every day, to give visitors reasons to come and return to this place.

The tourist area has been awarded the title "Asia's Leading Theme Park" by WTA for 4 consecutive years.

From the first cable car line No. 1, the "fairyland" has had many new items with flower gardens blooming all year round, ancient castles with European architecture like coming out of fairy tales, vibrant festivals and shows every day, an extremely rich culinary world and unique, classy entertainment works and products only available in Ba Na, along with attractive experiences day and night.

In 2018, Sun World Ba Na Hills also brought the name of Da Nang to the world, becoming a desired destination for many international tourists, since the legendary Golden Bridge was born. The unique architecture like a soft silk strip supported by giant mossy hands halfway up the mountain of the bridge has consumed a lot of ink in the international press and is still a "magnet" attracting millions of international tourists to Da Nang.

Over the past four years, despite the severe impacts of the pandemic, the first tourist area of ​​Sun Group has continuously invested in many new and classy projects and products with the Time Gate, Moon Castle, Eclipse Square, Sun God Waterfall... Even when visitors are familiar with those items, every time they come to Ba Na, they are amazed by the year-round festivals, mini-shows of all types of art at different times and locations, extending the endless journey of experience for visitors to the top of Chua Mountain.

Ba Na is enchantingly beautiful at night

Not only does it bring a journey of joy during the day, Sun World Ba Na Hills also brings a poetic and colorful world at night with the mysterious beauty of fairytale castles, passionate night parties, campfire programs with captivating performances by professional dancers...

In 2024, marking 15 years of establishment, Sun World Ba Na Hills is still diligently planning to continue bringing new surprising experiences to visitors, with Ba Na's own brewery and beer brand - Sun Kraft Beer, French bread factory, slide No. 3 and high-class shows that are still being cherished...

People often say "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step". But looking at the tireless efforts of Sun Group's first tourist area, people understand that the glorious journey of the past 15 years seems to be just the beginning for Sun World Ba Na Hills to realize its "journey of a thousand miles". That is the aspiration to make Da Nang an attractive destination not to be missed on the international tourist map and to bring Vietnamese tourism to stand shoulder to shoulder with the world's tourism powers.
