The lake cannot be missed when you are in Dalat. It is nice to walk around the lake (about 7 km) where you can enjoy different views on the city. When we were here, the Vietnames had a holiday. It was kind of interesting to see all the people relaxing at the lake side. More

A walk around the lake is a joy. You can stop for a coffee, power walk or just stroll around the entire lake in around an hour. People watching is the key, from couples to fisherman, it is just a perfect addition to down town Da Lat, Vietnam. More

Nicer than nothing, but it is an artificial lake with little wild life, plants, or other elements associated with a natural lake. Worth a walk around for the exercise, but if you are tight on time, the French quarter is prettier. More

Without the lake Dalat won't be Dalat. Lake is really something - from jogging around and biking around to just sitting in the cafe near the water and degustating local coffee. They launch fireworks on Tet - from the sides of the lake - and the view is magnificent - lake is like a mirror. More
