Located on the highest West Highlands of the Central Vietnam and 70% is covered by mountain and forests, Dalat is one of the youngest cities in the nation. It was founded by a French doctor, Alexander Yersen in 1893. Today it is the main city of Lam Dong province. Da Lat is known as the City of Love and Le Petit Paris. Climatologists call Dalat "The City of eternal spring" thanks to its average temperature that never falls under 10oC in winter and never exceeds 20oC in summer. Because of this favourable climate, Dalat is a flower garden all year. With beautiful views, waterfalls, lakes, pine forests, flower gardens and French-built villas. Its economy is based primarily on tourism.
