Detailed itinerary
1
At the first sight of Crazy House, 1 of the world’s 10 most bizarre buildings, you can definitely tap into the vibe of being chaotically organized through concrete curves, twists, which are inspired by elements of Vietnamese folklore and nature.
Moreover, We can have a deeper look into the underlying meaning of the bold relation between Crazy House uniqueness and the Vietnamese social norms in 1990s, "Đổi Mới" (Renovation) reform.
And the People's Committee of the city of Đà Lạt described it as “expressionist”.
Đà Lạt was once a French colony and was strongly influenced not only by French architecture but also by French culture. This played an important role in shaping the mindset of the Crazy House’s owner, making the Crazy House a symbol of innovation, a departure from traditional designs, and a cultural fusion of local heritage and global artistic trends.
2
Head to an outdoor art exhibition of clay sculptures, where art and nature intertwine. Moreover, it draws the rich history of Da Lat from the early days, the comprehensive depiction of the city's development throughout various historical epochs and the Dalat local heritages.
3
After lunch, Let’s take ourselves out into the majestic natural beauty of the Waterfalls, Datanla waterfall, which is well known as the best Mother-Nature gift ever to Da Lat
The waterfall is nestled within the dense pine forests and tropical trees of the Đà Lạt area, which acts as a natural backdrop, making the waterfall not just a beautiful sight but a heaven of tranquility.
Especially, We can experience the longest Alpine Coaster in Southeast Asia (optional)
