Camping at My Khe Beach- Da Nang

Hello everyone!
How is everybody today? Wishing you all a very pleasant weekend.
What do you usually do on weekends? Personally, I like picnics, camping with my friends, because camping, sitting together and sharing some stories will help me relax after a hard-working week. And last weekend I had a camping trip with @tuyenmei95, along with a few other friends, at My Khe beach, located on Son Tra peninsula and it's quite close to the city center. Da Nang first day of the new year with a few sunny days of winter, and we take advantage of the beautiful days every weekend to relax together. And a camping trip is more wonderful than ever.

My Khe Beach - Da Nang is the common name of the coast stretching about 10km from the foot of Son Tra peninsula to the Non Nuoc coast - Ngu Hanh Son and is divided into many different names to make it easy to distinguish each segment along the coast such as Pham Van Dong, T20, T21, Nguyen Van Thoai... My Khe Beach was voted as one of the 6 most beautiful beaches on the planet because it converges evaluation criteria such as clear and clean water, fine white sand, beautiful view... When traveling to Da Nang, you cannot miss this dreamy beach.

The place we chose to camp today is the beach at the foot of Linh Ung Pagoda, a famous temple of Da Nang, which tourists always visit when coming here. It belongs to the Son Tra peninsula and is just over 10km west of the city center. Standing under this beach, we can look up at the high spire of Linh Ung Pagoda and the statue of Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara. Because the place where we camped is also little known, so this place is very wild and deserted, most of them only have fishing basket boats near the shore of seafarers.

Since it's quite close to the city center, we left at around 4'oclock PM and everything like food and drinks we prepared at home as usual so that we don't have to waste time in the planning regime. We want to spend it for fun, swimming there. It only takes about 20 minutes to move to Linh Ung Pagoda, then go a little more than 1km, there will be a small dirt road on the right-hand side, and we follow that dirt road to get to the beach sea. After going all the way down the dirt road, they parked their car at the end of the road and walked down to the sand. The sand here is very clean and smooth, interspersed with a few clusters of seawater spinach close to the shore.

After we packed our things down, we started setting up our tents. It was still bright at this time, we took advantage of swimming, soaking, and playing in the cool blue water, it feels great for a sunny weekend like this. And we were able to capture these relaxing moments of each other with photos. Being immersed in nature, it feels like people have melted away all the fatigue of life, only nature and us, and nature is the best medicine for people at any time. Busy life, rushing to make money in the bustling city makes people have no time for themselves, and a weekend with friends, being in harmony with nature is the best thing for now, no What can be compared by right?

After playing in the sea, the sun had just gone out, we went ashore and started making a fire to prepare for dinner. There is a small freshwater spring nearby, so you don't need to worry about bathing in freshwater after bathing. We've prepared charcoal and brought it with us, so just finding some more dry wood will light the fire. There are also trees around here, so we have divided the boys who will go to find firewood and the girls who will stay and light the fire. It was starting to get dark, and the city lights were lit up, including the lights on the Linh Ung pagoda above.

In the evening, this is also a very beautiful place to watch the city at night, with the lights of a high-rise house close to the beach reflecting on the bright water. We lit a fire together and gathered around it, under the street light above, mixed with the dim fire, all creating a very beautiful and shimmering night scene. We enjoyed our food and talked together, sharing what happened during a hard week.

That's our weekend, we don't need to travel far, don't need to go to shopping centers, just need a place to sit together to eat and drink, talk about sad and happy stories in life, Being immersed in nature and enjoying it is the best thing for us. The night scene here is very quiet, and it's just us camping. We lay on the soft sand together, looking up at the starry sky, in the distance the sound of the waves crashing into the shore and ending when it reached the highest point of the sand. The seagulls began to come out of the burrow to feed, running very quickly on the beach. We close our eyes, listen to the sound of the sea, far away from the easy cries of the bushes, all blend together, we seem to be immersed in the scenery here, breathing the air together. The fresh air, alternating with the slightly salty smell of the sea breeze, leaves the mind free of worries so that your heart can relax in the most complete and peaceful way. These are the things we need right now, for a weekend.

As the time got late, the sea breeze became stronger and we started to feel cold, so sleeping in a tent was probably the most reasonable option so that no one would catch a cold the next day, and to ensure health. good health for everyone because we still have to go back to the city to work for next week. The next morning, we woke up early to catch the sunrise. Watching the sunrise on the sea is also a hobby of mine because receiving the first sunlight of a day and watching it from the sea is a very beautiful sight.

Today the direction of the sunrise was obscured by a large cloud so we couldn't see the sun rising from the horizon. Instead, the red sun began to slowly come out of the other cloud, the rays of sunlight shining on the surface of the water sparkled up, looking like a large mirror reflecting the sun. And another new day begins.

As the sun rose, we began to tidy up the tent and furniture, returning everything intact to the cleanest sand beach here. We got into our parking space and followed the dirt road back to the main road. Along this main road for about 1km more, there is a very beautiful stretch of road. We went there to take pictures. From here you can look down to the blue sea with a very perfect view, with the Son Tra Peninsula strait partially covered by large rocks, the waves crashing to create white bubbles, and one direction. overlooking the city's coastline. Here you can enjoy "virtual life" from any angle, any angle will give you the best photos.

We had a wonderful weekend to relax and it helped us to relieve all the fatigue and worries of the busy city life. And nature is the best medicine for everything. How about you?
