VietNamNet Bridge – Situated on the mountain ranges and romantic plateaus, these are the ideal places for tourists to enjoy the balmy weather during the hot summer in Vietnam.
Da Lat, in the Central Highlands’ province of Lam Dong, is located
1,500m above sea level on the Langbian Plateau. The city’s temperate
weather stands in contrast to Vietnam’s otherwise tropical climate. Mist
covering the valleys almost year-round leads to its name “City of
Eternal Spring”. The one-century history has also left a valuable
architectural heritage for the city. Da Lat is compared to a museum of
European architecture of the 20th century in Vietnam. These advantages
help Dalat become one of the most well-known tourist destinations in
Vietnam.
