The Hàn River (Vietnamese: sông Hàn (滝瀚)) is a river entirely located in the city of Da Nang, Vietnam. It is formed at the confluence of the Cẩm Lệ and the Đò Toản, where they join at the tripoint of the Da Nang city wards Hòa Xuân, Ngũ Hành Sơn, and Hòa Cường.[2] From that confluence, the Hàn River flows north for about 9.8 km, through the city center, under six bridges (Tiên Sơn Bridge, Trần Thị Lý Bridge, Nguyễn Văn Trỗi Bridge, Dragon Bridge, Hàn River Bridge, Thuận Phước Bridge), before emptying into the Da Nang Bay.[3]
