An international travel website describes: "Seven early morning experiences around the world, from the sea of clouds in Vietnam to the salt lagoons in France or the cheese-making scene in Italy—offer more than just a sunrise. They show how much of the world wakes up before us. So, wake up early to see how people all over the world begin their day."

What started as a local pastime has become an unmissable experience for tourists visiting Da Lat, Lam Dong province. Photo: PHAN TAN DAT
According to the magazine, the moment of dawn lasts only about an hour, as the night's chill still holds the clouds down in the valley before the new sun gradually dissipates the thin layer of mist. Photo: PHAN TAN DAT
Before sunrise, tourists climb hills 1,400 meters above sea level at various points in the mountain town of Da Lat to admire the sea of white clouds rolling over pine forests and tea hills. Photo: PHAN TAN DAT
According to photographers and locals, the best spots for cloud hunting include the hills in the areas of Da Phu, Thien Phuc Duc, Ngo Quyen, and Xuan Truong...
At this time of year, Da Lat is preparing to enter its most beautiful season with wild sunflowers, white bauhinia flowers, and from December to January each year, cherry blossoms bloom... This is the ideal time for tourists and photographers to capture the most vibrant images. Photo: PHAN TAN DAT
Watching the sunrise in Da Lat has long been a favorite activity and pastime of the locals, and now it has become a unique experience, attracting thousands of tourists every year. Photo: PHAN TAN DAT
Besides Da Lat, National Geographic's list includes six other destinations stretching from Ethiopia, Peru, Italy to India... but Da Lat, the highland city of Vietnam, was chosen to start, thanks to its rare blend of mist, clouds, and early morning sunshine. Photo: CHINH THANH
