UK newspaper calls Ba Na Hills a mock French resort hidden in the mountains
VOV.VN - UK-based travel newspaper The Daily Express has suggested escaping the humidity of northern region and taking a trip to Sun World Ba Na Hills in Da Nang, with the site being one of the country's most popular holiday destinations that gives locals a taste of Europe.
Situated around a 45-minute drive from the city of Da Nang, Ba Na Hills is a resort that aims to recreate the feel of a trip to France, according to reporter Jack Mortimer.
The UK newspaper also recommended that when tourists take a road up to the resort, the main way to travel there is via the longest non-stop cable car in the world, with the journey taking around 20 minutes to go 5,800 metres into the air.
Upon arriving at Ba Na Hills, the first thing visitors see is the Golden Bridge, a 150-metre-long platform seemingly held up by two massive hands, made from fiberglass which is designed to look just like stone.
The site first opened back in 2018, with the bridge attracting many tourists from all over the world. Guests are urged to make plenty of time to walk over the bridge to get the best views and watch out for any pickpockets, the article wrote.
The French village is known to be the main attraction of the tourist site. The main part of the village is a market square featuring a large fountain and busts of well-known French figures.
For the author, everything he could imagine in a French village was present. A Catholic church complete with confessions booth, a string of quaint restaurants offering wine stored in a cellar deep in the mountain, and even a number of vintage French cars that have been covered in bouquets of flowers.
