We reached Dalat at 6am in the morning and after we checked in hotel and have a short nap. We then went out to explore the city. Our first station is the Datanla Waterall, one of the famous waterfalls in Dalat, situated at around 10 minutes away from the city.
Entrance fee: 10000VND
There are 2 ways for you to travel from the main entrance to the waterfall, which is either you walk or you pay 40,000VND for a 2 ways toboggan ride. We picked the toboggan ride. Toboggan ride
The way down to waterfall is far fore interesting because there are some sharp turns on the trail. You can control the speed of your toboggan by holding or letting go the brake beside. In case you are ‘driving’ too slow, the guard at the pit stop will blow whistle and ask you to speed up. However, the ride from waterfall back to the main entrance are boring, you just need to sit on the ride and and being pulled back to the entrance.
I took a short pause during the ride to take this picture,ended up that the guard blow whistle at me. =.=

Me and the waterfall
Each of us took 2 individual pictures with this fake Monkey God and ended up we need to pay 20,000VND to him.
We thought is FOC, well, we are dumb.
After we paid the fake Monkey God for the pictures, we were selca with the waterfall and the fake Monkey God offered his service to help us take a group picture. We were so reluctant because we are stingy to pay the tips, until he said, “No Money”. And tadaa, a group picture of us with the waterfall.
Overall, I think this is not a interesting waterfall.We can’t soak our legs in the fall and relax for like half an hour.
But, the toboggan ride is awesome so it is worth the visit just for that ride.
=P
