Top 3 flower villages not to be missed when coming to Da Lat

Thai Phien Flower Village

Thai Phien Flower Village

Thai Phien is located in Ward 12, 7 km from the center of Da Lat city. Compared to many areas in this highland city, Thai Phien has a fairly flat terrain, fertile land and water sources from streams leading to Than Tho Lake, very favorable for growing flowers.

Therefore, if more than 50 years ago, Thai Phien only grew a few types of flowers such as chrysanthemums, gladiolus, roses, hydrangeas, today when coming here, visitors can also see many imported flower varieties from France, Japan, Indonesia, the Netherlands such as lilies, carnations, tulips, etc.

Entering the garden, you can not only enjoy the view, but also observe the farming activities in many areas. People nurse, plant, fertilize, people harvest, package, and box the products.

During harvest time, especially near Tet, the atmosphere in Thai Phien becomes bustling with all kinds of flower transport vehicles appearing on every street.

While during the day Thai Phien is brilliant with thousands of flowers blooming in bright colors, at night it attracts people with its sparkling beauty of yellow lights. Looking down from above, the whole flower village looks like a charming “city” of light with overlapping flower gardens, sparkling across the hill.

Ha Dong Flower Village

Ha Dong Flower Village

Formed 75 years ago by 35 households from Hanoi , Ha Dong flower village in Ward 8 today is considered the first flower-growing village in Da Lat.

Only about 2 km west of Da Lat city center, Ha Dong flower village is an attractive stop for tourists who want to see colorful flower gardens.

Like Thai Phien flower village, Ha Dong flower village was formed on beautiful terrain, gently sloping along low hillsides, fertile land, and has a stream flowing through.

Initially, the crops grown here were mainly strawberries, vegetables, chrysanthemums, lilies, gladiolus... but now Ha Dong flower village has many new varieties such as lilies, orchids, cymbidiums, roses, Japanese chrysanthemums... Among them, traditional flowers are still prioritized by villagers and preferred by many customers.

Van Thanh Flower Village

Van Thanh is known as the largest flower village in Da Lat.

Not as old as Thai Phien flower village, Ha Dong, but Van Thanh is known as the largest flower village in Da Lat, about 3 km from the city center.

Decades ago, residents of Ha Nam province migrated to Da Lat, establishing today's Van Thanh flower village.

Despite the steep, terraced terrain, this is still the main flower supplier for Da Lat, especially roses. Van Thanh roses are mostly grafted from wild rose stems.

With new rose buds imported from the Netherlands, Van Thanh villagers have created many types of roses with different colors such as velvet rose, lotus rose, pink rose, moonlight yellow rose, double rose...

Besides the strength of roses, this place also attracts tourists with many beautiful flowers such as chrysanthemums, lilies, salem, carnations, gerberas, etc. Lost in the "kingdom of flowers", you can also enjoy the charming fragrance.
