DALAT DIARY THROUGH PHOTOS

During my 4D3D trip to Da Lat last weekend, I decided to bring my camera to film a vlog, hoping to preserve the beautiful and poetic footage of Da Lat. Although I couldn't edit the vlog right away, I managed to "screenshot" each photo in the footage, so that I could share with everyone as soon as possible about this very meaningful trip. I will write a full caption for each photo, and in this main post, I will briefly share my 4D3D Da Lat travel itinerary, as well as a few bullet points stating my feelings (review) about the trip! --- ITINERARY --- Day 1 - Land at the airport at 9:30, take a Lado Taxi to the homestay En Ne Cottage. Rent a motorbike to go into town, have lunch at the restaurant Lau Ga La E (No. 5, 3/4 Street). - Stop by the Summer Garden cafe (Dang Thai Than street, Ward 3), sit there until around 3pm then return to the homestay to check-in. Rest in the afternoon at the homestay - Because it was raining, we took a taxi into town, went to Betonabe hotpot restaurant (11/3 Tran Phu). Then continued to eat at Chi Huyen's Grilled Rice Paper restaurant on Nha Chung street. After eating, we took a taxi home. Day 2 - Had breakfast at Banh Can Nha Chung restaurant, then got in the car to Chika Farm sheep farm about 12km from the center of Da Lat. On the way back, we stopped at Tui Mo To restaurant (Alley 31 Sao Nam), but because it was too crowded, we switched to Cay Cam Ngọt cafe (Alley 50 Khe Sanh). - Had lunch at Bep Khoi Nha Leo restaurant (30 Quang Trung). After eating, on the way back to the homestay, we stopped at Winmart to buy some food in case it rained in the afternoon and evening so we would have something to eat at home. - It wasn't raining in the afternoon, so we drove to the city, stopped at Chi Huyen's Grilled Rice Paper Shop to eat, then went to Xuan Huong Lake to watch the sunset. - Had dinner at Ghien An - Hu Tieu Muc, Nam Vang (No. 5 Suong Nguyet Anh Street). Day 3 - Meet you at Lam Vien Square at 7am, then have breakfast at Banh Mi Xiu Mai Ri 79 (1 Thong Thien Hoc Street). - Get on a motorbike and start the journey to Golden Valley, about 13km from the center of Da Lat. Instead of going through the main gate of the tourist area, go across the bumpy road to a place called Pink Grass Hill. - After playing enough on the hill, we went to Puppy Farm (Cam Ly Street) to visit and play with the dogs here. - Return to the city, have lunch at Banh Uot Long Ga Hang (39 Dong Tam). After eating, we went back to the homestay to rest, planning to meet everyone again in the afternoon at Xuan Huong Lake to watch the sunset. - However, due to the rain, we had to switch to plan B, which was to wait for the rain to stop and then go out for dinner. We ate at Thuong Nho Grill Shop on Ho Tung Mau Street. After eating, we took a taxi to the Still Cafe complex (59 Quang Trung) and sat and chatted until 10 o'clock before going home. Day 4 - Woke up early, went into town and had breakfast at Ms. Phuong's Banh Mi Xiu Mai (40 Yersin). - Walked around Xuan Huong Lake to find a bicycle selling salt coffee - Quyen Cafe. We stood in line for a while, it was the uncle's turn before us, the salt coffee was SOLD OUT, so we had to reluctantly order milk coffee. Sweet but bitter.
