According to Sun Group, a monorail system, which is the most modern of its kind in Viet Nam, will be put into operation at Da Nang’s Asia Park on 1 January 2016.

The monorail will wend its way softly along its 1.8km-long line to provide a new experience for visitors to the park.

The monorail system will have eight 30m-long trains with eleven cabins each, and it will be able to carry 2,000 visitors per hour.

Designed by the Intamin Transportation company from Switzerland, one of the world’s leading suppliers of monorails, the new system is operated by eco-friendly renewable and clean energy technologies.

With the opening of the new monorail, Asia Park should attract even more local residents and tourists.  It already boasts the nation's largest indoor entertainment area and the Sun Wheel, one of the 10 highest observation wheels in the world.
