1. History

Bana Hills was named after a local ethnic minority group residing in the area, which means ‘my mountain’. In the late nineteenth century, Bana Hills was the favorite vacation spot of the French during their colonization. Nowadays, it has been invested and expanded to become a top-notch recreational complex with the finest French architecture together with the most significant resort and exciting entertainments. Not only domestic tourists but also foreigners are interested in Bana Hills when planning their vacations in Vietnam, especially since Golden Bridge’s popularity has taken off lately. Sun world Ba Na Hills consists of 3 main parts including:

• Lower part: Linh Ung Pagoda, Le Jardin D’Amour Garden, Debay Cellar, Golden Bridge, etc
• Upper part: French Village, Fantasy Park, etc
• Mountaintop: Tru Vu Tea Corner, Spiritual Zone, etc

2. When is the best time to visit Ba Na Hills?

Ba Na Hills offers a wonderful experience year-round, but the ideal time for your visit depends on your priorities. Spring and summer (typically March to August) are considered the best time to visit Ba Na Hills, boasting clear skies and minimal rain, perfect for capturing stunning photos of the Golden Bridge. Ba Na Hills opens from 7:30 AM to 10:00 PM but we recommend visiting between 9 AM and 5 PM as there are more interesting things to do during these times. However, this peak season also brings larger crowds. For a quieter atmosphere with potentially fewer visitors on the Golden Bridge, consider September to March. Just be prepared for occasional monsoon showers during September and October by packing an umbrella or raincoat.
