No one can deny that Dalat has a reputation as one of the most attractive cities in Vietnam, which can be accounted for by the fact that its architecture was the combination of French and Vietnamese style. The Domaine De Marie (Dominion of Marie) Church is one example of that interaction between the two cultures. Today, it is not only a place for the local people to worship but also a destination for visitors from just anywhere.
The Domaine de Marie Church, also called Mai Anh Church or Cherry Church, is home to the Roman Catholic nuns of the Mission of Charity. Actually, that's why many people think that there's a feminine charm attached to the architecture of the church. Located on a nice hill at 1 Ngo Quyen St., Ward 6, nearly 0.6 mile southwest away from the city center, it is a 29.6-acre architectural complex consisting of the main church and two convents. It offers a scenic panoramic view of the city. It was built from 1930 to 1943 following the 17th century French style. Before 1975, this is the main abbey with more than 50 female nuns, most of which are Vietnamese who carry out social activities like opening orphanages and kindergarten. However, because its architecture is the harmonious combination of Western art and Vietnamese folk art, the church definitely stands out from other ones created at the same era.

The mountain is well-known for its primeval and mighty scenery and is said the rooftop of Lam Vien plateau. The mountain has two peaks, with one with a height of 2,169m and the other, 1,950m.

The name Langbiang is associated with a love story that touches everyone all deeply. According to the story, K’Lang, a son of the chief of the Lat hill tribe, madly fell in love with H’biang, a daughter of the chief of the Chil hill tribe. However, it came as a tragedy that old harsh rules banned marriage between people coming from different tribes so that the two young people decided to die together to keep their love eternally. Seeing what they did, K’Zenh, Biang’s father, did regret and decided to do whatever he could to unify different hill tribes in the region, such as Lat, Chil, Sre… into one group called K’Ho. Since then, people from different tribes could love each other and get married. After the two youths died, their graves were said to grow bigger and bigger as the two peaks of the mountain appear today. The mountain range is then named after the two young people’s name as Langbiang in commemoration of their eternal love.

The 1,950m peak is reached by trekking a long zigzagging path through a pine forest or driving self-supported cars. On the peak, there are a flower garden, statues of K’lang and H’biang, and souvenir shops. From here, visitors can see as far as Vang (Gold) and Bac (Silver) streams winding below and the entire Da Lat City far away.

A trip to conquer the 2,169m peak will challenge visitors physically. Visitors still take the same road to the 1,950m peak but when nearing it they will instead make a right turn into another path. The peak is reached by trekking through primeval forests in changeable weather for at least two hours and then climbing up steep mountain cliffs for two hours more.

At the mountain foot lie villages of ethnic minority groups in the Central Highlands, who have kept their settlement area and culture quite true to its traditional features. Here, visitors are provided with accommodations and other services they need. Visitors can stay on facilities built in a vast valley, called “Thung Lung Tram Nam” (100 year-old valley), where other necessary services are also available. They can take part in artistic performances by ethnic people or learn more about the age-old cultures of ethnic minorities inhabited in the region.

The Langbiang Culture and Tourism Area Project (2008-2013) is aimed at protecting and preserving cultural values of ethnic minority groups living in Lam D**g Province in particular and the Central Highlands in general. It seeks to develop the area into a tourist site where the owners will not only introduce to visitors spectacular scenic landscape, but also look to promote the spirit of solidarity among central highlanders and the ties between them and other ethnic groups in Viet Nam and people coming from around the world. The Langbiang Culture and Tourism Area is expected to become a venue for annual festivals and cultural exchange between ethnic minority groups in Viet Nam, especially those in the Central Highlands, the southeast, the southern central region and the Mekong delta.

In 2005, Langbiang Mountain was acknowledged by the Ministry of Culture and Information (the now Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism) as a national sightseeing site.

D**g Ba Market is the biggest market in Thua Thien-Hue Province.

(TITC) - Under the reign of King Gia Long (1802-1819), there was a big market named Qui Gia near Chanh D**g (D**g Ba) Gate of Hue Citadel. The name “Qui Gia” referred to the return to Phu Xuan Capital (Hue nowadays) of Nguyen Dynasty. In 1885, the capital was attacked by French colonial and Qui Gia Market was burned. In 1887, King D**g Khanh had the market rebuilt on the foundation of Qui Gia Market and renamed D**g Ba. The market supplied food to the royal, hospitals, army camps and dormitories of Quoc Hoc, D**g Khanh, Binh Linh, Thien Huu schools... In 1899, under the Western-style reconstruction project of King Thanh Thai, the market was moved to the nowadays position. Even though D**g Ba Market underwent several repair projects from the beginning of the 20th century, but nowadays, it still embraces many old features.

Apart from the bell tower in the centre, D**g Ba Market contains 2,700 stalls arranged in 9 rows. The total area of the market is over 22,700m². The average number of people to the market daily is 5,000 – 7,000 and can be double during the holidays.

Walk along the Fairy Stream
Apparently the fairies appear at night. Though most visitors come during the day for the cool water that’s ankle deep at the deepest section. The water is extremely clear, it just looks muddy because of the reddish earth.

Ngo Mon Gate
The principal entrance to the Imperial Enclosure is Ngo Mon Gate, which faces the Flag Tower. The central passageway with its yellow doors was reserved for the use of the emperor, as was the bridge across the lotus pond. Others had to use the gates to either side and the paths around the pond. On top of the gate is Ngu Phung (Belvedere of the Five Phoenixes); on its upper level is a huge drum and bell.
