Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Remember that Da Lat is in the mountains, it might be cold here, depends to what weather you are used for, but be aware that it will be much colder here then in the tropic climate you enjoy in the cost line on the sea level. So bring something warm, especially for the evening and night.

Miscellaneous: I know you will think it is weird if I tell you to bring postcard from HoChiMinh ( I mean postcard of DaLat's picture) because when I was there I couldnt find the shop which sell any postcard even in the post office. Finally I found one at the post office ... oh my God! ... very old one ... old style ... you will see how old it is from the yellow color at the edge of the postcard.
Whatever I had to buy it in a pack ( 10 postcards inside) cost 8,000 dongs ...not too expensive,hmmm? In every postcard I wrote about how hard I found this postcard.
Stamp for 1 postcard to Thailand is 7,000 dongs

We better take a picture of DaLat and make a postcard ,drop our postcard at the hotel and make a new business ... Who agree with me about postcard business in DaLat?

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Warm sweater & pants. Dalat gets cold once the sun sets. Sandals with good grip are a must for all adventure sports.
