Da Lat - a fleeting moment of sweetness

Whenever people think of Da Lat, they often think of a resort paradise. The shadow of the tourism industry is too big, overshadowing Lam Dong's original nickname, "Agricultural Capital."

Thanks to favorable natural conditions, both native and exotic plant species are successfully cultivated in this highland region.

From the gently sloping hillside roads, one can gaze out over the city center and see the lights illuminating the greenhouses – silently, day and night, bringing the sweet flavors and purity of nature to every corner of the country.

Da Lat city also has the nickname "City of a Thousand Flowers". Everywhere in the city, you can see the presence of fragrant flowers and exotic plants.

Each season has its own unique flowers, each captivating in its own special way. Flowers aren't just found year-round; they can be everywhere, from charming little balconies to vast fields of blossoms.

Instead of relying on favorable natural conditions, the key factor is "human harmony," which involves leveraging science and technology to build high-tech agricultural farms integrated with agro-tourism models (visiting and experiencing the farming process).

Therefore, tourists never get bored when visiting Da Lat because there are so many things to see and do. There are many new things to learn about agriculture and a wide variety of flavors to enjoy.

It's not simply the favorable altitude of over 1,500 meters above sea level that makes Da Lat's coffee so special, or the mystical fog that makes it so unique. Growing and enjoying coffee in Da Lat means much more than just being blessed by nature.

It is a product and lifestyle distilled from the history and culture of this land. Going back in time, the French brought to Da Lat the culture of coffee and ancient Arabica coffee varieties (Bourbon, Moka, Typica), creating the "Arabica du Tonkin" brand, exclusively for the European elite.
