The 2015 Da Nang Tourism Photo Contest entitled ‘My Danang’ was held between 24 February and 31 July.

The contest’s organisers received a total of 936 entries from 98 amateur and professional photographers from Viet Nam and abroad.

The entries were divided into 3 categories -  542 photos described the beauty of the local landscapes, 192 showed the busting atmosphere of local events and festivals, whilst 202 reflected the daily lives of local residents.

There was no first prize winners, but second prizes went to ‘Dem Ba Na’ (Ba Na Hills Resort at Night) by Huynh Van Truyen and ‘Luong Long Vong Nguyet’ (Two Dragons Wishing upon the Moon) by Nguyen Trung Thu.  The third prize was shared by ‘Niem Vui Tuoi Tre’ (The Joy of Youth) by Nguyen Xuan Duy and ‘Hu Khong’ (Nothingness) by Trinh Thu Nguyet.  A consolation prize was also awarded in each of the three categories.
