Dalat (Vietnam) - Wink Travel Guide

Dalat, also Da Lat, in the South Central Highlands of Vietnam, was originally the playground of the French who built villas in the clear mountain air to escape the heat and humidity of the plains and coastal areas.

The city spreads across a series of pine-covered hills, with a small lake in the centre and surrounded by a man-made lake and higher peaks, making for some lovely scenery quite different from the rest of Vietnam.

Dalat is a favorite destination for company-sponsored weekend outings, family getaways, and honeymooners.
