More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
Dawn in Đà Lạt carries a cool, pine-scented stillness that tightens your senses as the van eases away from the city. You step out at the Crazy House and concrete curves and stairways unfurl like an imagined forest—odd angles that feel part sculpture, part storybook. A short drive delivers you to the clay-sculpture exhibition: weathered figures and local scenes arranged outdoors where moss and rain darken the clay's edges.
