Located at high altitude with vast pine forests, Da Lat has long been one of Vietnam's most renowned destinations.

Da Lat's peak tourism season extends from summer through the end of the year. During early winter, this city in Vietnam's Central Highlands appears to float amidst clouds and mist.

Da Lat - the city of mist

For tourists, June and July are typically the main summer travel months, but for Da Lat locals, the end of the year (from October to December, sometimes extending into January) truly captures the essence of Da Lat. By this time, the late summer rains have ceased, and the crisp winter air has arrived.

When exploring Da Lat, here are some impressive recommendations from locals to fully experience your journey:

Golden Glory: The Blooming Season of Wild Sunflowers in the Highlands

Known not only for its cherry blossoms, Da Lat has long enchanted visitors with its Mexican sunflower season. Uniquely, these flowers bloom intensely for just a few months during the seasonal transition, beginning in early winter and completely withering without a trace by spring.

Mexican sunflowers are wild plants that typically grow around fences and local coffee farms. Usually modest and inconspicuous like other plants, they suddenly burst into life when the weak northeastern winter winds arrive from the north. A road that was quiet yesterday suddenly becomes filled with golden blooms the next morning. Mexican sunflowers bloom intensely, displaying their timeless beauty while facing the sun. Wherever there is greenery, endless fields of golden Mexican sunflowers can emerge.

White Mustard Blossoms: A Pure Beauty in Da Lat’s Landscape

Unlike other vibrant flower seasons, White Mustard Blossoms are more subtle and simple. Each white flower resembles a small cotton ball placed on green stems. Without flashy colors or fragrances, White Mustard Blossoms seem to concentrate all the purest essence of nature to create their transparent, gentle soul. Visiting these flower fields, letting your spirit embrace the wind, breathing deeply in nature's freshness and pristine creation will help you connect with yourself, leaving behind the chaos and worries of busy city life.

The white wildflower fields are a perfect spot for check-ins with incredibly picturesque photos.

The stunning white wildflower paths are breathtakingly beautiful.

Discover Da Lat’s Unique Red Maple Forest

Recently, people accidentally discovered a beautiful maple forest hidden deep within Tuyen Lam Lake in Da Lat city. This discovery was incredibly surprising for those who love these red-leaved trees, attracting many visitors seeking to find these romantic symbolic trees.

Although the journey isn't easy, requiring boat riding, forest trekking, and hill climbing, seeing the bright red maple trees amid the forest makes all the effort worthwhile.

October in Da Lat: The Harvest Season of Red Persimmons

Trips to Da Lat in October and November often include motorcycle rides through persimmon orchards full of ripe red fruit in Xuan Truong commune (Cau Dat tea hill), gardens near Bao Dai's Palace III (Trieu Viet Vuong Street, Ward 2), and the Mimosa Pass area (old Prenn Pass road)... Also in the D'ran area, peaceful roads covered in red soil in the early winter cold with brilliant sunshine. Glistening in the sun are persimmons lighting up the branches.

These persimmon orchards are usually open to visitors. Owners often warmly welcome tourists to visit, take photos, enjoy fresh fruit on-site, and buy some as gifts for loved ones.

The ripe persimmon orchards are a must-visit destination in Da Lat.
