Xuan Huong lake - The heart of Da Lat city

in Worldmappinlast year

Hello dear Hivers in the Pinampple community, today I bring you again to a new place, which is Xuan Huong lake. It is a beautiful lake located in the center of Da Lat city, Lam Dong province, Vietnam. Xuan Huong Lake is one of the most famous and beautiful lakes in Da Lat, loved for its majestic beauty and space in harmony with the surrounding nature. Xuan Huong lake has become a symbol of Da Lat and attracts a large number of tourists from all over the world to visit and enjoy the beautiful natural scenery.

The city of Da Lat was founded in the late 19th century by the French, and Xuan Huong Lake may have been created at that time or after. Initially, Xuan Huong lake was called "Grande" lake and then renamed after a famous Vietnamese poet, Ho Xuan Huong. Xuan Huong Lake has an area of about 32 hectares, with clear blue water and surrounded by green hills. The landscape around the lake is enchanting with rows of green pine trees, roses and brilliant peach blossoms.

In the early morning, when the sun was just beginning to rise, a dim light spread over the lake. The view from the lakeside at this time will make you feel like you are lost in a fairy picture. The orange-yellow light of dawn combined with the turquoise of the trees and the blue of the lake water creates a beautiful color picture. Xuan Huong Lake is known for its beautiful water reflections. During the early morning, when the water is calm, you can see the beautiful reflections of the surrounding trees and hills. Da Lat usually has a cool climate, and in the early morning, thin layers of fog can appear on the lake water, adding charm and mystery to the landscape.

One of the special features of Xuan Huong Lake is the road that goes along the lakeside called "Ho Xuan Huong Street" (also known as "Love Trail"). This is a long, beautiful and romantic road, attracting a lot of tourists walking or jogging to enjoy the beautiful scenery and enjoy the fresh air of Da Lat. You can easily stop by a roadside mini restaurant to enjoy a grilled corn, cakes and a glass of warm soy milk. Early morning is the time when few tourists visit, which makes Xuan Huong Lake become more peaceful and pure. You can enjoy a quiet, relaxing space and immerse yourself in nature.

With the increasing number of visitors to Dalat, the area around Xuan Huong Lake has become much more crowded. Many houses, hotels, restaurants and cafes have sprung up around the lake. That has turned the areas around the lake into busy commercial and service areas. Xuan Huong lake now acts as the heart of Da Lat city, where all roads lead. Below are some photos that I took of the area around Xuan Huong Lake early in the morning.

These are considered as two symbols of Da Lat city: wild sunflowers and artichoke flowers

The truth is Da Lat was found by French during the war because of its cool weather, then when the war ended, they left unnique architecture for us.
