The image of rivers seems to be intrinsically associated to the formation and development of Da Nang City. Flowing through the passage of time, the meandering contours of these rivers not only enhance the city’s natural beauty but also enrich the cultural and spiritual lives of its people. Alongside Han River, an emblem of Da Nang, the nature has bestowed the city with other rivers, each of which bears distinct charm. While Co Co River boasts a poetic and picturesque beauty as it winds through a region rich in heritage and landmarks, Yen River exudes serenity and tranquillity. The gentle Cam Le River carries imprints of cultural and historical significance. Journeying upstream along the Tuy Loan River, its winding course near the source creates breathtaking, artistic strokes upon the landscape.

Da Nang Weekend invites readers to enjoy a collection of photographs showcasing the city's rivers through the lens of photographer Nguyen Huu Tan (Da Nang).
