    Altitude Rooftop Bar

    Visions of a blazing Vietnamese sunset

    Altitude Rooftop Bar
    • Luxury
    • Nightlife

    Altitude Rooftop Bar has precisely the sort of location you'd expect of one of the most celebrated rooftop venues in Nha Trang. It's right in the middle of the beachfront, soaring some 22 storeys high at the very pinnacle of the Sheraton Nha Trang Hotel & Spa. Naturally, that means the views are pretty special. 

    Get in early enough and you'll be able to sip a cocktail while the light fades on the glistening East China Sea and Hon Tre Island turns into a shadowy silhouette. Later on, there are often DJ shows and dancing. A short food menu offers crudites and dips, with some Asian options like spring rolls.

    Location: 26-28 Trần Phú, Lộc Thọ, Nha Trang, Khánh Hòa 650000, Vietnam

    Open: Wednesday–Monday from 5 pm to midnight (closed on Tuesdays)

    The Nha Trang Night Market is a bustling mix of sellers that tout all sorts. It comes alive as the sun sets along the Vietnamese coastline. Look for it just one block back from the main beach in central Nha Trang, emblazoned with shimmering neon signage and sizzling noodle stalls alike.

    Things hit peak market around about 9 pm. That's when the concourses of the covered and outdoor sections here will be teeming with bodies. Some come to haggle over shining jewellery and knock-off fashion tees. Others are on the hunt for chilli-packed Vietnamese street food.
