Translated by Bing
Dalat is always an attractive tourist destination in spring and especially Tet. If you only have one day here, you can still plan to explore and enjoy the atmosphere of the mountain town at the beginning of the new year.

6h: Breakfast and coffee


You should go to Dalat market early in the morning, have breakfast at the rows of cakes, shumai bread, sticky rice cake pepper ... then visit Tung café to watch the street through a large glass window, immersed in the old mountain town space with ancient music. Although in the city center, Hoa Binh area and Dalat market in the early morning still retain the dreamy and deserted beauty.
