Are you heading to Danang and looking for an activity that takes you outdoors exploring nature? Do you like fresh air and lush rainforests full of endangered species like the  Red-shanked douc langurs? They are those cute monkeys with red bib necks and cute faces.
Then the Son Tra Nature Reserve won't disappoint you! 10 Mins from Danang centre.
 
Oh, btw, those monkeys have a very mischievous personality as you will soon find out.

I am always delighted to have someone on the show that can educate us on a new experience of Vietnam. Especially, if that experience helps us …..as a visitor to better understand some of the local projects focusing on biodiversity and the development of important ecosystems.

Today we are going to learn about the Son Tra Nature Reserve and Education Centre.
