Encyclopedic overview
Quảng Nam ( Vietnamese: [kwaːŋ˧˩ naːm˧˧] ) was formerly a coastal province near northernmost part of the South Central Coast region, the Central of Vietnam. It borders Huế to the north, Đà Nẵng to the northeast, Kon Tum to the southwest, Quảng Ngãi to the southeast, Sekong of Laos to the west and the South China Sea to the east. Quảng Nam is located in the key economic region of Central Vietnam. In 1997, the province was re-established by separating Quảng Nam - Da Nang province (also known as Quảng Đà province) into two administrative units: Quảng Nam province and Da Nang city. Currently, the province counts two cities: Tam Kỳ (the provincial capital) and Hội An. Quảng Nam is the province with the most world cultural heritage sites in Vietnam, with two world cultural heritages recognized by UNESCO: Hội An ancient town and Mỹ Sơn sanctuary. In addition, the province is the birthplace of several people with important contributions to Vietnam. This is also the only province in the South Central Coast region that borders both the South China Sea and Laos, and has an international border gate.
On 12 June 2025, Quảng Nam was incorporated into Da Nang city.
