Thap Ba
The Po Nagar towers once stood at the entrance
of Cai river, where the river meets the ocean. The towers
stood in isolation on a rock foundation, but over many
years the towers and the land it stands on became part
of the land mass as the river changed its flows. |
Da Lat
Da Lat, a city of eternal spring, is probably
one of Vietnam's most well known vacation destination.
Since the turn of the century, Da Lat has been the vacation
spot for well-to-do vietnamese and foreigners. It is
the unofficial honeymoon mecca of Vietnam. Located on
Lám Viên (Langbian) high lands, part of the greater
Central high lands of Vietnam (Cao Nguyen Trung Phan),
the city is 1500 m above sea level and is 305 km from
Saigon. The name Da Lat originates from the hill tribe
people in this region. It literally means Stream of
the Lat people. |
