Ba Na History...
[FONT="]Ba Na Resort over one hundred years ago [/FONT]
[FONT="]In 1894, governor general of Indochina, Doumer, decided to build a hill station for French civil employees and military officers. A group of officers led by marine captain Debay and his colleagues, including lieutenants Baulmont, Duhamel and Vairel and sergeant-major Thirlon was assigned to carry out the plan. After many years of surveying various landscapes in central Vietnam, they failed to find a suitable place. In December 1900, Doumer organized a second mission led by Debay and three lieutenants, Becker, Decherl and Venel. In 1901, the mission discovered Mt. Ba Na in the east of the Truong Son mountain chain and found it to be ideal for the construction of a high standard resort.

[FONT="]The beauty and fresh air of Ba Na Resort encouraged a French doctor to build a resort here. The First World War broke out and the French military officers and civil employees could not return home on leave, so they finally decided to build a resort at Mt. Ba Na.
[/FONT]
[FONT="]The August Revolution started in 1945 and the French military forces were defeated and withdrew. Vietnamese civil employees in Ba Na returned to their home towns and the beautiful tourist town became deserted.[/FONT]
[FONT="]During the national struggles against the French and American invaders and throughout the national economic crisis, the Ba Na Resort lay hidden in the old forest of the giant Truong Son mountain range.

Guinness World Record
On 25 March 2009, a Guinness World Record representative will be in Ba Na Hills, in Da Nang City, Vietnam, to present an official certificate to the Ba Na Cable Car Service Joint Stock Company for the great achievement of two new Guinness World Records, one for the longest non-stop cable car and one for the highest non-stop cable car.
The cable car system will run from the foot of the Ba Na Mountain to the peak of the neighbouring Vong Nguyet Mountain in the Ba Na-Suoi Mo Tourism Area, about 40 kilometres west of Danang City.
The 5,042 meter (16,545 ft) cable car ride will take approximately 15 minutes, reaching a vertical rise of 1291.81 meters (4,239 ft) above sea level.
Before this amazing achievement of science and technology, tourists had to travel along a steep mountain pass to go to the beautiful province of Ba Na, while now they can sit back, relax and enjoy a single comfortable journey in the world’s longest and highest non-stop cable car over stunning views, in order to reach one of the most amazing destinations of Vietnam.
The dynamic investor, the Ba Na Cable Car service joint stock company has spent VND300 billion ($17.2 million, £11.64 million) in the cable car system which is able to transport 1,500 passengers an hour, and this will increase significantly the tourism in the area.
The grand feat will add prestige to a still developing nation as Vietnam, rich of amazing locations.
