About Dalat
Dalat is Vietnam's romantic mountain town — a former French hill station at 1,500 meters with eternal spring, pine groves, and a charmingly quirky mix of colonial architecture and crazy buildings like the 'Crazy House'. The city is Vietnam's coffee capital, flower center, and number one honeymoon destination. Waterfalls, canyoning, and the largest night market in the country complete the experience.
