The Da Nang Tourism Promotion Fund, in collaboration with the city’s Department of Tourism, recently organized a program to introduce Da Nang’s tourism offerings in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
During the event, representatives from Da Nang showcased the city’s events, festivals, new tourism products, MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) tourism, golf, beach resorts, and culinary experiences. The program also provided opportunities for Da Nang’s tourism businesses to expand and strengthen business connections with partners in Malaysia.
Ms. Nguyen Thi Anh Thi, Vice Chairwoman of Da Nang’s People’s Committee, stated, “To meet the needs of the Malaysian tourist market, Da Nang has focused on investing in accommodation infrastructure, promoting direct flights, and developing tourism products, services, entertainment, and culinary offerings to enhance the experience for tourists exploring Da Nang.

Da Nang ranks second among the Top 11 Best Destinations in Asia for 2024, thanks to its strengths in beach resort tourism, a collection of world-renowned hotel brands, unique theme parks, vibrant nightlife, and diverse culinary culture. The city’s connections to world cultural heritage sites and its recognition as Asia’s Leading Festival and Event Destination further bolster its appeal. The growth in international tourists in Da Nang during the first seven months of 2024, with over 2.4 million international guests staying in hotels and resorts, attests to the destination’s allure.
