You step into mist as the cable car lifts away from the city, the coastline shrinking below while a cathedral of cloud gathers around Ba Na Hills. Two stone hands hold the Golden Bridge out over a green sea; wind threads through the oxidized bronze balustrade and the crowd hushes to take it in. Later, the Dragon Bridge arcs across the Han River, scales aglow, preparing its nightly breath of fire.

Conservation
