Danang, the fourth-largest city in Vietnam, is one of the most
important seaports in the central region. It played a prominent
historical role in the American war, being the landing site for
the first American troops officially sent to Vietnam. Even with
the bustle of ships coming and going, poor Danang has to be one
of the world's ugliest cities, and there isn't a major attraction
save for the Cham Museum. It's really a must-see. Unfortunately
it's been given the shaft by all the tour buses that used to make
a stop here en route between Hoi An and Hue. Nowadays, if you can
get them to stop for the museum, they'll only give you about 20
minutes to look.
