Marveling at Marble Statuary, South of Danang

We had read that Danang wasn't much of a city for tourists, but two sites we visited yesterday changed our opinion of that!

The first is referred to as "Marble City" and is a town nestled among five mountains that is rightly famous for its stone sculpture making and its stone-cutting crafts.  

One large shop our driver took us to had acres of stunningly beautiful statuary, just a few of which I've captured here by photo.  





I would have loved to have shipped a few of these beauties home, but thought better of it given the limited space on our garden terrace in the city.
