Itinerary
Morning:
Begin your adventure at the top of Robin Hill with a scenic cable car ride. Enjoy panoramic views of Da Lat, Lang Biang Mountain, the giant yellow Buddha statue, the golf course, Xuan Huong Lake, Prenn Pass, and Elephant Mountain. This modern European-designed cable car spans 2.3 km and takes you from Robin Hill to Tuyen Lam Lake, considered the most beautiful lake in Da Lat. Here, you’ll also find the Truc Lam Zen Monastery, the largest Zen university in Vietnam.
Drive or trek along the lake to the Fairy Rock Site (Da Tien) for a unique elephant experience. Spend 15 minutes interacting with these magnificent creatures around Paradise Lake and through the enchanting pine forest.
Midday:
Head to Datanla Waterfall, where you can walk along serene paths under a leafy canopy. Discover beautiful, glossy rock slabs where, according to legend, fairies once bathed and played.
Afternoon:
Visit Da Lat Railway Station, renowned as the most beautiful old railway station in Indochina. This station features ancient French architecture and houses an old Japanese steam locomotive and a unique cog railway with Swiss technology, offering a glimpse into Da Lat's rich history.
If available, take a scenic train ride from Da Lat to Linh Phuoc Pagoda, a 7-kilometer journey through flower and vegetable plantations. Upon arrival, admire the pagoda's impressive architecture, made from fragments of glass, pottery, and porcelain, creating vibrant mosaics. Marvel at the unique Guan Yin statue crafted from Vietnam's immortal flowers and the striking 49-meter long dragon covered with 50,000 beer bottle fragments.
Conclude your day with a transfer back to your hotel.
