Vietnam’s administrative restructuring has merged Quang Nam Province into Da Nang City, expanding its footprint to include wards like Minh An (formerly Hoi An). The district level has been eliminated, making Da Nang the nation’s largest city by landmass. Enhanced by sustainable infrastructure—cycling paths, electric buses, and a VND600 billion flood mitigation project (2024)—the city ensures seamless access to Ba Na Hills.
