Morning light slides across the South China Sea as a private car threads from Da Nang’s waterfront toward limestone ribs that rise from rice paddies and sand. The day begins at Marble Mountains: cool stone stairways, Buddha shrines and cave mouths that seem to breathe history. Later the road narrows and the land opens into the archaeological silence of My Son, where brick towers from the Champa kingdom tilt toward banyan roots and monsoon skies.
