This exciting collaboration between the People's Committees of Thua Thien hue Province and Da Nang City, along with Vietnam Railways Corporation, offers tourists a unique way to explore the scenic journey between these two captivating cities.

Boasting five modern, air-conditioned soft-eat coaches and a communal activities carriage, the train has quickly become a hit with travelers.

Additionally, VIP lounges at both Da Nang and Hue stations ensure passenger convenience.

The three-hour journey takes passengers through the Hai Van Pass, known as the "most spectacular pass under heaven". From their comfortable seats, travelers can admire a breathtaking natural panorama – the majestic Truong Son Mountain Range on one side and the vast expanse of the sea on the other. With two daily departures from each station, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, tourists can experience both sunrise and sunset over Lang Co Bay, one of the world's most beautiful bays.

 A variety of regional delicacies from the areas the train passes through are prepared in advance to serve to passengers.
