Golden Bridge, Pedestrian bridge in Ba Na Hills, Da Nang, Vietnam
Golden Bridge is a 150-meter-long, 5-meter-wide steel footbridge that winds through the Ba Na Hills near Da Nang. Two large stone hands hold the golden-colored structure as it stretches across the terrain, surrounded by greenery.
The Sun Group commissioned the bridge, designed by TA Landscape Architecture of Ho Chi Minh City under principal designer Vu Viet Anh. Construction began in July 2017 and was completed in April 2018, and the bridge opened to the public in June 2018. It links the cable car station with the gardens.
The Vietnamese name Cầu Vàng refers to the golden color of the structure. Visitors come to stand between the stone fingers and take photographs, with the hands becoming almost as important as the walkway itself.
This spot is only reachable by cable car to the Ba Na Hills complex, located about 40 kilometers from central Da Nang. The narrow width means groups sometimes form, especially when many people want to take photographs.
The hands are not stone: they are fibreglass and wire mesh, built to look weathered. The bridge was designed by TA Landscape Architecture, founded by Vu Viet Anh, who was the principal designer, with Trần Quang Hùng as bridge designer. It links the cable car station to the gardens, avoiding a steep incline.
