Attracting emerging visitors in the suburbs of Da Lat - Vietnam

avatar
(Edited)

In the past, the central valley of Da Lat was cool and covered with large forests. The French planned this city with a population of about 30,000 people, because most of the scattered mountains surrounding the valley are located on a plateau above 1,100 meters above sea level. Since two large waves of migration from the North poured into this southern highland after the communist regime ran the country. The population is now about 20 times larger than before the two new settlements of the Northerners. As a result, greenhouse farming complexes sprang up around the densely populated city, making the climate around the central region much hotter and stifling.

Those who still want to see Da Lat as it was before and want to stay away from the reinforced concrete infrastructure in the center are gradually turning to the suburbs and suburbs, where still the wild features and beautiful landscapes are preserved forests have not been cleared to make greenhouses. This sightseeing spot is one of them, where I spent a lot of time traveling to it on the rolling passes next to the low hills.

It is called Chuon Chuon(refer to a dragonfly), an emerging tourist attraction, in addition to the parallel Coffee and Bistro services to satisfy customers. Understandably, they take full advantage to increase demand when the population and convenience stores are sparse and absent in the surrounding area.

It is located on a large area deep in the pine hills and grows coffee of the Churu ethnic group here. To move from Da Lat city center or Lien Khuong airport to the south about 35km, along Ta Nung pass.
This pass is quite attractive to tourists and long-distance travelers because of its enchanting scenery and good road system for those who like high speed. Its address is located at 217, hamlet 5, hamlet 3, Lam Ha district, Lam Dong province.

Understanding the needs of tourists when coming to this city who love to take pictures and see the scenery on a high hill, it has done quite well to create a place to relax in its large and peaceful setting again. I lost 65000 VND (3$) for entrance and sightseeing tickets.

The coffee service and restaurant are located on the mountainside where there is a large one-story elevator that takes guests upstairs instead of carrying their bodies across the road by steep and long stairs. However, spending a little physical strength here is not a problem.

Fields of flowers when they skillfully select species with good color and low cost. The example you are seeing are the flower fields: lavender, peony, hydrangea and some types of chrysanthemum,...

However they built some wooden tablet floors that intertwine the flower beds to form a large puzzle. than when viewed from above. Since it's not the weekend, it's not too crowded here, creating more comfortable conditions when I take pictures.

They cleverly built it as a miniature ecosystem with full gardens, ponds for releasing Koi fish and complex huts.

Try to imagine each hut under the tree like that for tables where guests prefer privacy. Of course I love that, especially the arches that are taken advantage of by the surrounding large trees.

The elevated area where the coffee and bistro complexes are located is much more modern with glass doors with a view, and the outdoor area is like a large balcony jutting out from the mountain. Surely many people would prefer staying up here than on the ground where visibility is limited and small boxes for virtual living and taking pictures.

There is also a sizable infinity pool from above that promises beautiful views and experiences.

They have a few motels across the mountain, but I don't stop by when I don't need to.

The price room is also quite expensive when it is equal to the entrance ticket, so the accommodation service here is also higher than the general level in the city ranging from $100-200 depending on the resort room class, the staff at the water counter let me know that.

I feel that walking around all these areas is no different from a climbing trip, it is quite tiring when there are too many stairs up and down and it is only interesting for those who like to walk and see the simple beauty around around.

But above all, the process of moving into a remote place hidden deep in a deserted, sparsely populated hill made me feel like a countryside next to a bustling modern city. Where they just found what I wanted to see. An option for fun picnic occasions.

Thank you for following this article.

Just thinking about Vietnam already opens up a captivating world, one that can't wait to be explored.
I hope that one day I too will have the opportunity to explore these amazing areas of Vietnam.
By the way the pictures attached here are amazing.

I am very happy about that, I admit that in Vietnam there are still many problems for foreign tourists, but really the people here are very cute and welcoming to each other. Perhaps empathy. If one day my country turns to liberal democracy, surely Vietnam has great potential in terms of geography and people.

I have heard only good things about Vietnam from other friends who have been there, as you said, the people are very nice and hospitable.
For me, at the moment, the only thing holding me back is the rather high airfare, but accommodation and food, from what I hear, are not that expensive.
Have a wonderful weekend.
