Just south of Buon Me Thuot city on Hwy 14 about 20 Km is a quaint tourist attraction that has a number of elephants setup for tourists to ride, very reasonably priced and really enjoyed a visit to Buon Don north of the city also along Hwy 14 approx 18 km to see the vast coffee plantations in the plateau of Dak Lak Province, the people are so friendly
