The best photos of Dalat aren't always at the obvious landmarks. Sure, Xuan Huong Lake and Dalat Railway Station will fill your camera roll, but the real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, and the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot. Seek out Dalat night market for the kind of shot that no one else is posting.
A French-built hill station in Vietnam's Central Highlands, surrounded by pine forests, flower gardens, and misty highland landscapes.
