Dalat
Da Nang/Danang
- Marble Mountains
Situated on the city's southern periphery, en route to Hoi An, lies a remarkably commercialized cluster of stone and "gem" crafting emporiums where your chauffeur will be afforded a complimentary repose (and a thirty percent commission on all transactions) while you explore the adjacent limestone karst formations adorned with sacred shrines and prayer halls, and honeycombed with cavernous passages descending into vividly lurid folk art dioramas depicting the torments awaiting transgressors in the Asian netherworld.

- Lac Thanh
- 6A Dinh Tien Hoang
054-352-4674An absolute delight for epicureans! This diminutive eatery, situated just prior to entering Hue's Imperial Citadel, is a must-visit. The proprietor, a character of considerable charisma, not only serves delectable regional cuisine but also provides helpful guidance by annotating your map with local attractions that offer complimentary entry or are deemed less captivating or overpriced (indicated by smiling, indifferent, or displeased facial icons). Furthermore, they will demonstrate the proper combination of condiments for each dish presented, even humorously delivering a perfectly assembled morsel directly to your mouth using chopsticks. Be sure to sample the delightfully chewy banh khoai (crispy fried shrimp and pork patties), typically enveloped in fresh herbs and accompanied by a slightly fermented, pudding-like, nutty dipping sauce. Additionally, consider the banh nam, a savory and yielding rice confection steamed within banana leaves and garnished with piquant fish sauce. The banh cuon, resembling a somewhat wilted spring roll, conceals a rich and crispy pork surprise within its custardy rice pancake casing. This establishment offers humble yet incredibly flavorful fare.

- Sailing Club
As of now, Nha Trang does not feature a club exclusively catering to the gay community. The majority of bars and pubs are clustered around the intersection of Tran Phu Street (the main seaside thoroughfare) and Tran Quang Khai, along with Nguyen Thien Thuat. You can procure affordably priced beverages through promotional flyers and during designated happy hours. Post eleven in the evening, patrons tend to congregate at the Sailing Club. This establishment is the sole venue on the beachfront that remains operational until two in the morning. While it is a heterosexual establishment, a gay-friendly enclave is typically discernible within.

During weekends, particularly on Saturday nights, a substantial Vietnamese crowd congregates here, with a considerable portion identifying as gay. The Vietnamese patrons generally favor the indoor seating arrangements, while the outdoor area is predominantly occupied by tourists. Activity typically commences around eleven in the evening and continues until four in the morning, with the peak attendance occurring shortly after midnight.
