You step out of an air-conditioned car onto sun-warmed steps hewn from marble and limestone, the city noise fading as the slopes take you upward. The Marble Mountains rise in tiers of caves, pagodas, and carved stairways; wind threads through grottoes, urging you toward a clifftop glimpse of My Khe beach and the sweep of Da Nang bay.
