Dalat

An 8-hour bus trip from HCMC up into the highlands brought us to the city of Dalat. While still a pretty city with the lakes and French architecture there is not a great deal to do here. Once you've strolled though the small city center and seen the tourist spots such as The Crazy house, built by an ex-presidents fame driven daughter which is an eye sore of a hotel but interesting, the Last Emperor of Vietnam's Palace (which smells quite a bit like moth balls) it's safe to say you have seen what Dalat has to offer.
