Total investment in Ba Na Hills ecotourism complex raised to nearly $1.7 billion

The project was first conferred a registration certificate in May 2008. The move aims to meet the development requirements and visitors' tastes whilst ensuring harmony between the natural landscape and the architecture.

Accordingly, the project has been adjusted to meet the standards of construction density and land use coefficient according to the approved planning, minimising the impact on the natural surroundings and promoting the diverse biology in the Ba Na-Nui Chua ecological area.

The adjusted content includes changes to ensure the completion of the project within a reasonable timeframe and increases the total investment to match the scale of the project.

In light of the revised certificate, the Ba Na-Suoi Mo ecotourism complex will feature various work items including a French village, a fantasy park, the Ba Na by Night resort, cable car routes, a railway station, a slide sports area, a beer garden, a multipurpose entertainment and performance area, and a castle zone, among others.

At the foot of Ba Na Mountain, the complex encompasses a cable car route, a departure station, a city gate area, the Hoi An waiting house, a Trinh Temple model, and accompanying public facilities.

The Ba Na-Suoi Mo ecotourism area came into operation in 2009 with the opening of the Ba Na-Suoi Mo single-wire cable car system, following which, a series of items serving the tourism industry of Danang have been pressed into operation.

As a result, from 2009 to 2018, the number of visitors to Danang swelled by 463 per cent and those visiting Ba Na Hills also spiked by more than 160 times.

This location attracts visitors not only with the shimmering, fanciful beauty of the mountains and the rich vegetation, but especially the fresh climate and the convergence of four seasons into one day. It sits amidst immense natural scenery, gathering an entire green area of the city on the banks of the Han River.
