Morning mist lifts from a clearing of brick towers as your private guide leads the way—My Son’s red-stained ruins sit low and intimate, stones warmed by the day’s first sun. Later the itinerary climbs: limestone stairs at the Marble Mountains open into caverns, pagodas and the soaring Lady Buddha that watches Da Nang’s coast.
