Dalat Walking Tour
Dalat, Vietnam
Why Walk Dalat
Dalat was established by the French in the early 20th century as a cool retreat from the lowland heat. At 1,500 meters, the town enjoys a year-round spring-like climate. Its French colonial villas, flower gardens, and pine forests give it a character unlike anywhere else in Vietnam. The surrounding countryside produces much of Vietnam's coffee, wine, and vegetables.
