The adventure culminates at Monkey Mountain, home to the remnants of a US radar station and heliport from the Vietnam War era. This unique blend of history and natural grandeur offers a window into the vibrant tapestry of Da Nang's past and present—a deeply rewarding journey for those seeking to explore beyond the ordinary.
