Sandwiched between densely forested terrain and the glistening blue sea is the central Vietnamese province of Quang Nam Province.

An electric mix of eras and styles, travellers to this diverse destination can explore its bustling cities, admire the ornate architecture, visit charming temples, sunbathe on its golden shores, and sample the famed Quang noodle.

Home to two awe-inspiring UNESCO World Heritage Sites, history enthusiasts and the culturally curious can visit the historically charming Hoi An old town, recognised for its exceptionally well-preserved examples of traditional Southeast Asian buildings,  and the sacred My Son, a fascinating complex of partially ruined Hindu temples constructed between the 4th and 14th centuries.

Must-see attractions include the Japanese Covered Bridge, Old House of Tan Ky, Terracotta Park, Thac Grang and the Marble Mountains.
