Fifty cherry blossom branches will also be delivered to Danang on a direct flight from Japan’s Narita city on April 8, one day ahead of the first-ever cherry blossom festival in the Vietnamese city. 

The two-day festival aims to tighten relations between Danang and Japan. 


This year, Danang is set to build a Vietnam – Japan exchange centre and open two high-end hotels invested by Japanese entrepreneurs. 

It will also launch a boat tour from Danang Bay through the Co Co River to Hoi An in neighbouring Quang Nam province, retracing the two countries’ old trade route.
