I once heard a beautiful sentence, Old is Gold. It turns out that I realized that growing old is indeed a privilege. In many ways, everyone is afraid of getting older, but actually old is just a number. Getting old is a privilege, not everyone can get old, and you have to enjoy it with moments even though they are simple.
In reality, there are also some things that are 'old' that will be something that many people look forward to, even liked by many people. There are so many old things that become antiques and are in demand and even sought after to have fantastic prices. So, getting old is not something to be afraid of, it just has to be in the right place.
For example, this railway station which is located in a small town in Vietnam. Da Lat Railway Station. Anyone who has ever wanted to go to Vietnam will definitely hear about this tourist destination. In the past until now, this place has been the busiest place in the city of Da Lat, because of course it is the transportation used by the local people.
However, currently Da Lat Railway Station is not used for busy transportation like in the past. It is still operating now but of course it only transports short-distance passengers as a tourist attraction in this city. The train carries a few passengers by dropping them off at a place not far from the city center, but it can be used for a round trip if you want to flashback to the past in Da Lat city.
The cold temperature in Da Lat city certainly adds to the very fun vibes in this place. Da Lat city is truly a memorable place for me. There are many interesting stories and of course the reason why I came to this city. Actually, not many people know about this city. But, there is a reason why I came here. This city used to be a place of escape or maybe a place where someone was kidnapped, none other than the first president of the Republic of Indonesia. It's really interesting, isn't it?
Well, the train used here is certainly old and can still be used even though it is very slow. The train that looks like Thomas, is black and has a little touch of red on some sides. But, overall it is black.
The interior is very luxurious, with elegant French classics like seeing luxury in ancient times. So riding this will make an unforgettable impression. The price offered for a 1-hour train ride is also relatively cheap. But what needs to be remembered is only about the departure schedule. I didn't know that this train was still operating, so I didn't know the departure schedule, so I couldn't get the opportunity to get an interesting experience riding this train. It's very unfortunate.
But, I will attach a photo of the operational schedule of this train. So you don't need to be afraid of not getting a place. Just adjust the schedule to your needs.
In addition, Da Lat Railway Station can also be an option for shopping for souvenirs for friends. Here there are lots of sellers of typical Da Lat city goods, ranging from statues, key chains, clothes, bags and much more. In addition, there are also several places selling coffee that you definitely have to try. The coffee in this city is really very characteristic. A complete package for traveling to Vietnam easily.
Call me Isdarmady, because I have a full name that is very long, namely Isdarmady Syahputra Ritonga. I am a head of the family who work as Farmers Vegetables Hydroponic and Consultant Hydroponics, sometimes I also sell coffee from various regions in Indonesia.
I have expertise dispensing coffee with a variety of techniques and tools brewing, because I have the desire to make a coffee shop with hydroponics as centerpieces. Help me realize that dream.
Thanks for read, vote, re-blog and support me in Hive. Maybe god will reward the kindness, let’s success together.
a very unique and rare train I think this train is very strong because it is still able to run as you said
As I said, old is gold.

my pleasure 😄
Just the other day I was watching some Romanian vloggers who were also in this place, they are visiting Vietnam on a scooter, I think they have done 500 kilometers so far, they started in Hanoi and they are heading to old Saigon, now Ho Chi Minh.
Being on a scooter they are obliged to use only the roads through the villages are not allowed on the highway with the scooter, I live with them an amazing experience, I hope in the future I can do the same.
Thanks for your blog.
Wow, that was an amazing ride. How they managed to ride a scooter for 500km is something that is hard for many people to do.
This vloggers set out to discover Vietnam from one end to the other so they rented a scooter from Hanoi and drove to Ho Chi Minh, all this was done in two weeks, they didn't drive so much every day.
But by the end they had done about 1500 km on the scooter, I really enjoyed their experiences here, mostly they went by the sea.
