Spring, when many types of flowers are in their fullest bloom, when Lunar New Year brings the distinct Tet atmosphere, and when trips with family remarks as their new beginning of the year. In the Year of the Dragon, one of the best destinations to experience all these specialties is Ba Na Hills (Da Nang) and its iconic Spring Festival 2024.

Organized each year at Sun World Ba Na Hills, the lively and captivating Spring Festival never fails to impress its admirers with a plethora of beautiful flowers and unique activities in the first days of New Year. This year, the festival has the theme “Where spring blossoms meet”, which begins on January 20 and lasts until March 31.

Gardens of flowers such as colorful roses, tulips, hydrangeas, sunflowers, etc will warmly welcome and pave the path for your footsteps, almost like natural beauty is coming to life everywhere you go. And when you look around, remember to take some pictures with the symbolic flower of Ba Na Prunus campanulata (cherry blossom shaped like bells) in the blooming season. The special cherry blossom trees here have flourished and bloomed magnificently for many consecutive years with perfect weather conditions and dedicated care from local people.

For someone who enjoys learning about Vietnamese authentic traditions, Spring Festival 2024 also embodies the essence of Vietnamese Tet including participating in folk games at Hoi An Garden, wrapping bánh chưng, eating Vietnamese cuisine, temple-hopping for wishes of prosperity and happiness, and asking for câu đối (parallel sentences), etc. 

A beautiful scene can always be even more complete with a touch of music. The main attraction of the 2024 Spring Festival will be a variety of unique art events honoring the Year of the Dragon, for example, unique orchestral songs that will be first brought to guests when they first arrive at Hoi An Garden. 

“Visitors coming to Sun World Ba Na Hills will not only see a new look of the tourist area but also fully feel the flavors of Vietnam's traditional Tet, as well as see the melodies and tones of spring from many countries around the world, which is a very unique characteristic of Ba Na", said the Director of Sun World Ba Na Hills.
