Dear friends,

I'm going to have a trip to Da Lat City starting on 01/08(Wednesday evening) and will come back HCMC on 05/08(Sunday evening). So, I'm looking for your recommend and your sharing about where I should stay, where to go, what I should enjoy.

P/s: I'll travel alone, so I have to spend reasonably.

Tks,
Vy

Use the Mai Linh Express bus, they have an office on Pham Ngu Lao Street and another on Le Hong Phong Street (main office). They are one of the safest bus lines around and have data recorders to ensure drivers act safely.

OpenTour buses are far less safe.

On of the best economy hotels praised by travelers from all over the world is:

Dreams Hotel
151 & 164 B Phan Dinh Phung
Da Lat, Lam Dong
Tel: 063-833-748
E-m: dreams@hcm.vnn.vn


I suggest you make your e-mail reservation early because it is so popular. They have two properties now.

The Cho Da Lat (market) is well worth a good visit as they have many products that are not sold elsewhere in VietNam.

Take good walking shoes with you as Da Lat City has many hills and valleys! The food is particularly noteworthy as it is all grown locally.

The Da Lat City web site is: < http://www.dalattourist.com.vn/aboutus.asp >.
