Hello everyone,
It's a weekend, so I remember a very enjoyable trip in a country which I think is one of the mandatory itineraries for those of you who like traveling. Vietnam, a country that made me really fall in love with its culture, nature, scenery and experiences.

This country has many interesting cities. Our trip at that time was to visit the 2 cities where it was most possible to go there. It's a little difficult to start from the city where I live because there are several transits to several cities such as Kuala Lumpur. Yes, I transited in Kuala Lumpur first and headed to Ho Chi Minh. After that, I went to Da Lat city which can be reached by bus overnight.

In the city of Da Lat, I aimed to stop at an interesting place that very few people know about. Da Lat has a place that is a must visit if you are someone who likes cool nature.

Da Lat is a city at an altitude of 1500 meters above sea level, quite cool because it is at the top. One of the highest peaks of Da Lat city is a place quite far from Da Lat city, often a place for cloud hunting. San May Cau Dat.

Traveling 1 hour from the hotel where I was staying in the middle of Da Lat city, I rode my motorbike at 4 in the morning and the air temperature was very cold. Of course, wear a thick jacket as well as a helmet and glasses so you can see the road very clearly. The sky was still very dark and it even felt like night time. The dew was still very thick and again it was so cold that it pierced the bones.

Arriving at our destination at 6 am I couldn't really see anything, but I still remember clearly, I saw a windmill that was really very tall and spinning. The wind seems to be moving the mill at medium speed. That morning I didn't even have breakfast but I was already hunting for clouds.

Finding San May Cau Dat

I saw someone waiting at the top of San May Cau Dat with his motorbike filled with lots of things. It turns out he sells eggs, sweet potatoes, coffee and tea as real food breakfast here. Very nice because it gave me a chair and a place to have breakfast. Bought some eggs, sweet potatoes and coffee to restore my energy because I had been riding a motorbike on this very cold morning. Yes, cold air makes your stomach feel hungry quickly. Filling with food is the main solution.

After filling my stomach, I sat down and waited for the sun to start appearing on the earth's surface. It's a tense moment because this is the right time to enjoy San May Cau Dat. Clouds began to appear on the surface as the sun began to emit its rays.

Likewise, several windmills are finally operational. Initially there were 1 or 2 people moving, but now almost all the windmills are spinning because the wind clouds have started to become very large.

After the sun finally started to allow my eyes to see everything around me, I realized that there were a lot of tea leaves here. It turns out that this is a really large tea garden. From the start of the eye, there is a tea garden and several other gardens at the end of this hill.

It turns out that Da Lat is indeed a city full of plants, nature and very pleasant views. This city has a unique characteristic that other cities don't have, it is really very peaceful and peaceful when you are here.

Now San May Cau dat is also filled with lots of people, but I didn't see any tourists like me here. There were lots of local people who came from several cities, but unfortunately there was no one to chat with because of the very different languages, and they also used English which not everyone understood.

It's really emotional being here. You know, my brain and heart can even clear when I'm here. Clean, fresh, and I can holiday very comfortably.

These windmills in the fog of the local landscape look like fantastic buildings from some future. The last photo is cool!
