February 25, 20251 yr Popular Post Another moved post from another forum. You will love Danang and the area. I started a 10 day trip 5 years ago just as the airlines were stopping flights due to covid. Hoi An just 30 minutes away is a glorious little town, with lanterns lit up everywhere in the evenings. Hoi An There is also at the west end a 15th century Japanese bridge In the centre of this area is the large city of Danang with its fabulously long beaches A little further north there is the old Imperial capital of Hue. The French destroyed much of it, espeically the imperial palace, but it is slowly being restored. This was the scene of a lot of fighting during the Vietnam War.
February 25, 20251 yr Active Members Very nice pics, thanks! I think that Hue is my favorite, w/Hoi An a close second. Da Nang is great (& affordable) beach, hang out destination. Have you been to Da Lat? I liked that a lot, too!

Only in the sense that it has the same characteristics as Jomtien's beachfront with kilometers of open walkable beach with many many high rise condos with balconies that face the sea. Also, the seawater on the Da Nang beachfront is much more cleaner than the Jomtien seawater. 1 hour ago, 12is12 said: Is there really such a compound there? Why haven't we heard/read more about it? You haven't heard about a compound there because it does not exist. It was never stated here in this forum that there was any similarity with Jomtien's gay life offerings with those of Da Nang. I wrote about Da Nang when I went there for 2 weeks last April:

There are 2 gay bars in Da Nang, both are meeting places for gays like gay bars in the West. There are no go-go or hosts gay bars in VN, but many bars have drag show by Friday and Saturday. There are also gay bar in Hoi An (30 min by taxi), also meeting place https://www.instagram.com/livingcolors.hoian/ There are gay saunas with masseurs and dark rooms in VN, mostly they are located in Saigon, at past there was gay sauna in Da Nang, but I'm not sure, if it still exists.
