Da Lat
With its cool weather, Dalat is an amazing escape from the heat you can't seem to escape in Ho Chi Minh City. It's also an insanely cheap trip - a sleeper bus costs 200,000 Vietnamese Dong, which is about 10 USD and a night at a Hostel is around 5 USD. I stayed at DaLat Central … Continue reading Da Lat
