Once coming to “the city of thousands flowers” – Dalat – in Vietnam Central Highlands, it would be a huge mistake for tourists to skip its collection of flower gardens. From the city’s immense one to local farms, people are supposed to be drown in the beauty of this “Kingdom of flowers”. The best time to see the vast charming attractiveness of this Dalat ” speciality” is in winter season, especially in December and January when the Flower Festival is held.
Endowed with all-year-round temperate weather, romantic pine tree forests, awe-inspiring flower fields, French boulevards and villas from the colonial period, Da Lat has long been touted as the City of Love and Eternal Spring. Da Lat’s distinctive mild climate along with misty weather constitutes a sense of ethereal beauty, making this small city the ideal destination for escaping vacations away from the busy metropolises. On the natural side, Langbiang Mountain, Xuan Huong Lake, Doi Thong Hai Mo and Valley of Love top the list. On the cultural and historical side, Bao Dai Summer Palace, Domaine de Marie Church and Truc Lam Monastery are the treasures that hold the rich history and culture of Da Lat and the region.
