Your tour guide will show you around the sights that give Dalat its reputation as Southeast Asia’s most kooky metropolis.
Not to be missed are the Dalat Biology Institute, the antique steam engines of the Cremaillere Railway, and the Hang Nga Guesthouse and Art Gallery, more often known as the Crazy House.
Its creative owner, Mrs. Dang Viet Nga, created the eccentric structure over two decades ago and has been likened to Gaud’s architecture. The colonial district, the primary flower and fruit markets, and a local floral garden are all on the itinerary. Get out of town and enjoy the serene beauty of Tuyen Lam Lake and its neighboring pagoda. Make a pit stop at a coffee farm or a local farm.
