Do you know where is Da Lat or Le Petit Paris?

Da Lat is located in the South Central Highlands of Vietnam. Known unofficially and somewhat romantically, as "The City of Eternal Spring" or by the other nickname "Le Petit Paris". A scaled down version of Eiffel Tower emerging from the city centre adds a certain Parisian feel, however it is the natural beauty of Xuan Huong Lake and the numerous examples of European inspired architecture and wide city streets that are really the centerpiece of this gorgeously romantic and seductive city of 185,000 inhabitants.

The mountainous terrain of Dalat gives way to a perpetual spring like climate, averaging an annual 24 degrees Celsius in day time and even milder conditions during the evenings. During the wetter season of April - October, the city and surrounding forested areas are shrouded in mists - a striking contrast against the backdrop of normal vietnamese life.
