Da Nang is the largest city and the commercial center of Central Vietnam, but on its beach fishermen still row coracle boats. Just south the Da Nang lie the Marble Mountains, which consist of five marble hills, each said to represent one of the five elements of the universe (water,wood,fire,metal,earth). The largest, Thuy Son, is home to a network of temples which include some of the finest troglodyte sanctuaries I have seen.
