Da Nang is a major port city in the South Central Coast of Vietnam, on the coast of the South China Sea. It is one of the five independent municipalities in Vietnam.
There are several local shopping markets scattered around the city and a few shopping centres. Hung Vuong, Hoang Dieu, Phan Chu Trinh and surrounding streets offers a wealth of quality goods; clothes, shoes, homewares, dvds etc.. If you have more time available, you can pay a visit to the new French-owned superstore Big C, which offers a wide variety of goods.
It is a comparatively safe city but be sure to lock up your belongings at night which includes not leaving your bike out on the street. Everyone generally brings them into their houses.
