The monkey mountain is a formation that juts out of the Son Tra Peninsula, about 12 km from the main city of Da Nang. The monkey mountain resembles a pair of cartoon ears. In the local dialect, it is known as Nui Son Tra but was made popular by the American Soldiers as Monkey Mountain. The monkey mountain is placed at a strategic location with Da Nang on one end and the Hai Van Pass on the other and thus, acted as war base during the US-Vietnam conflict. It was opened to visitors only in the recent past and is now popular as a biking route. The view from the summit of the mountain attracts thousands of adventure seekers and tourists each day. As far as the eye can see you can marvel the views of Son Tra Peninsula, Da Nang City, and Cham Island. The mountain still has some Radar Domes that were used by the US military in the days of war and are still operational today, making them a prohibited area for tourists. Although going by motorcycle is the best way to reach the top, the roads are not that great and can be problematic for the uninitiated. Read More
