Look, I knew what to expect but I let the fomo get the better of me. Unsurprisingly, this was by far the most boring thing I've done in Vietnam.
The place is made exclusively for taking photos. The target audience is probably Asian tourists who want to feel like they're in Europe on steroids. All of the houses are either cafes/restaurants or hotels. There's nothing to really do there. It took me maybe 2-3h to walk the whole place and do the rides that were available.
The Alpine Coaster is closed. The Lunar Castle had 2 functional 3D cinemas with short "rides", one of which was for kids. The only real ride in the whole place is the small drop tower in the Fantasy Land (included in the ticket). There's also a small climbing wall, but that's 100k extra. All the other stuff in the Fantasy Land looked like it was for small kids.
The Golden Bridge was the most over-hyped thing I've seen in my life; it's not a even bridge, it's a short boardwalk. Looks way more impressive (and bigger) in photos that in reality.
Protip 1: If you still want to visit, go by scooter (the road from Danang is wide and easy to drive) or Grab so you can leave when you've had enough. I got on a shuttle bus via Klook and ended up with nothing to do for hours.
Protip 2: You can bring your own food, nobody checks.
Protip 3: The Rosa Cafe in the Rose Garden is as ridiculously overpriced as everything else there, but it's got comfortable couches and is a good place for remote work, if you're stuck there and remembered to bring...
Read moreLucky escape , I reckon .
Was in Estella and got a super bad tooth ache .
My friend suggested there was a dentist on the top floor I could try .
The front of the dentist / reception area , looks very professional . (When you go towards the back it’s not so clean )
The nurse took the x ray , and I told her it was the bottom back tooth . I don’t speak Vietnamese well, so she didn’t understand which tooth it was . Bare in mind this is a NURSE not a DOCTOR, she advised me 2/3 teeth need to be removed - first big red flag 🚩(firstly she wouldn’t be able to tell this form an x ray , secondly no one had ever checked inside my mouth , thirdly I have regular checkups at home)
She then sat me in the empty room (check up room) to wait for a dr . I waited 6 mins or so , she then came back in and wanted to do the check up her self (in 40 years , I have never ever had a nurse trying to conduct a dentistry check up herself )- I told her to leave me alone , and I will wait for the dr .
At this point , and after checking other reviews quickly - I quickly left this place .
BE CAREFUL- there is definitely something very wrong and unprofessional about this place . I’m blessed that I didn’t wait long enough to check
At No point during or before anything , did anyone do a health check up , back ground check , or even ask my name...
Read moreWorth a visit with some truly nice views, flowers and a great gondola ride. Getting to the actual park is a pain and you park, stand in line for a bus, take a bus, then walk probably 1.5 km to get to the gondola, stand in line, then finally arrive. Coming back is worse as you are fighting the crowds and everyone walks so slow. Be aware, the place is a money sucking black hole. If you don't want to see or do every little thing, you pay nearly 2 million vnd just to get in and then every single thing you do costs more money. Or you can pay a lot more for a Wow ticket but either way, it's very expensive. We make a mistake and opted for the buffet ahead of time paying 350K each for it and it was horrible. Very crowded even on a Monday and they need much better signs to get around. Typical, Disneyland like routing to make sure you go through every shop and area to spend your money which is annoying. But again,...
