7. Nguyen Van Troi Bridge Da Nang – A Historical Witness

Address: Located between Tran Thi Ly Bridge and Dragon Bridge, connecting Hai Chau and Son Tra districts, Da Nang

While other bridges boast modern beauty, Nguyen Van Troi Bridge stands quietly as a priceless “artifact” of Da Nang. Designed and constructed by RMK (USA) and completed in 1965 for wartime purposes (formerly named Jean de Lattre de Tassigny Bridge), this was the first road bridge spanning the Han River.

After liberation, the bridge was renamed after the hero Nguyen Van Troi. Currently, the bridge has ceased serving vehicles and is kept as a pedestrian bridge, becoming a nostalgic space with unique bright yellow Poni arch steel truss architecture. This is where visitors come to feel a peaceful Da Nang and take artistic retro-style photos.
