Tam Thanh Mural Village

Tam Thanh Mural Village is an open-air art village in Tam Thanh Commune, Tam Ky City, Da Nang, central Vietnam. Created in 2016 through a Vietnam-Korea community art exchange, Korean and Vietnamese artists painted more than 100 colorful murals on houses and walls of a traditional fishing village. Located near Tam Thanh Beach, it combines coastal scenery with folk art, depicting daily life, nature and local culture, and has become a notable community-based tourism attraction.

Visitors can walk through narrow lanes of a coastal fishing village where house walls, fences and alleys are covered with large colorful murals depicting fishermen, daily life, children, animals and nature. The village remains inhabited, with small homes, fishing boats and nets visible, and opens directly onto Tam Thanh Beach. The setting is open-air and informal, suitable for walking, photography and observing local life and street art at close range.

Created in June 2016 as part of the Vietnam-Korea community art exchange project organized by the Korea Foundation, UN-Habitat and Vietnamese volunteers. Artists painted murals on about 100 houses in Trung Thanh hamlet to revitalize the fishing village, promote cultural exchange and develop community tourism.

Represents community-based art tourism blending contemporary mural art with traditional coastal fishing village culture. Murals depict local livelihoods, fishing activities, family life and natural motifs, reflecting central Vietnamese coastal heritage and Vietnam-Korea cultural cooperation.
