Da Nang was recognised as one of five central government cities in 1997 along with Hanoi, HCM City, Hai Phong and Can Tho. It was designated a ‘First Class’ Vietnamese city in 2003.
The former capital of the then Quang Nam-Da Nang Province is expected to play a prominent role in ASEAN and Asia in the future. 
The city will host the 2017 APEC (Asia-Pacific Economic Co-operation) Summit and the annual Da Nang International Fireworks Competition next year.
