Day1

We arrived at Ho Chi Minh City Tan Son Nhat International Airport around 5:00 pm. This trip we went with two people. Here you don't have to fill out an immigration form. You can just submit your passport. We exchanged dollars from Thailand and then exchanged them for Vietnamese money at the booth at the airport.

After exchanging money, we went to the airport to buy a SIM card. There were several SIM card stores at the airport. We bought a 5GB SIM card for 105,000 VND from Vianaphone.

After exiting the airport, turn right and walk straight towards the bus stop. You will find the number 152 green bus waiting there. The fare is 5,000 VND per person. If you have a large bag that needs to be placed on the floor, there will be an additional 5,000 VND charge for the bag.

We took a car to De Tham Street, using GPS for navigation. As we approached our destination, we stood by the back door of the car, and the driver stopped to let us out.

We then walked to the Phuong Trang (Futa bus) company to buy tickets to Da Lat. We opted for the 11:25 PM bus to avoid arriving too early in the morning. The tickets cost 210,000 VND per person, and the shop next door offered luggage storage for 20,000 VND.

We felt light-headed, so we decided to grab something to eat at The Cafe Apartment. When we arrived, the entire building was plunged into darkness! We had planned to take a picture of the front of the building, but we decided to wait a while since we were already there. Luckily, an electrician was on-site fixing the issue.

We didn't wait long for the electricity to come back on, but it was already dark. Then we went upstairs to have tea at Partea-English tearoom, which has a very cute concept.

There are over 20 types of tea to choose from, all with amazing aromas.

Once you've chosen your favorite tea scent, turn around to another corner and you can choose your favorite coffee cup set! There are many styles to choose from, all beautiful and practical. Just pick one you like and walk to choose a seat.

Every corner of the shop is truly adorable, with both indoor and outdoor zones.

Please translate the following sentence from Thai to English:

After enjoying a cup of fragrant tea, we walked to the Opera House to take some photos. On the way, we passed by City Hall, which was bustling with activity due to a sporting event taking place that day.

This area will be a place for people to relax and unwind, and in the evening there will be a musical fountain show.

From City Hall, we walk a little further and we will find the Ho Chi Minh Opera House, a historical theater built over 100 years ago. It boasts beautiful French architecture and is also known as the Municipal Theatre of Ho Chi Minh City. Today, it still serves as a venue for various performances and concerts. The theater features a fountain plaza, a popular relaxation spot for locals and tourists alike, and offers a stunning backdrop for photographs of the Opera House.

After the theater, we walked back to find something to eat near the place where we were going to catch our bus. The restaurant was called Sa Sa Cafe and offered a variety of Italian and Vietnamese dishes. We ordered Vietnamese food because, well, when in Vietnam, you have to try the Vietnamese food, right? The food was quite good.

After relaxing for a while, it was almost time to depart. We retrieved our luggage and waited for the bus on the opposite side of where we purchased our tickets.

At 11:25 PM, a van will pick us up to take us to another location where we will board a sleeper bus.

After a short bus ride, we arrived at the parking lot where we would board the sleeper bus to Dalat for the night. Before boarding, the staff distributed bags for us to store our shoes. We then took our assigned seats.

From Ho Chi Minh City to Da Lat, it takes about 6 hours.

Day 2

We arrived in Da Lat at 5:30 am. The weather was very cold, around 15 degrees Celsius. Everyone got off the bus shivering.

A company car will then take us to our hotel. We booked our accommodation through Agoda, at the Tulip Hotel Dalat, for 646฿ per night.

Upon arriving at the hotel, we attempted to check in. However, our room was not yet available due to the presence of other guests. The staff kindly informed us that we could relax and freshen up in a designated room downstairs. The service was exceptional, with all staff members displaying warm and welcoming smiles.

After we finished showering and eating, we booked our tickets to Mui Ne for the next day through the hotel. The tickets cost 120,000 VND per person, and we also rented a motorbike to explore Da Lat. The motorbike rental cost 150,000 VND per bike. We were able to leave our luggage at the hotel.

The first stop on our journey was Pongour Waterfall, a roughly one-hour drive away. Despite the distance, the scenic views and pleasant, cool air made the trip worthwhile. Upon arrival, we encountered an entrance fee of 10,000 VND per person.

Please provide the text you would like translated from Thai to English.

Pongour Waterfall is renowned as the most stunning waterfall in Dalat, boasting a height of 20 meters and a width of 100 meters, making it the largest waterfall in Vietnam.

The waterfall cascades down the cliff face, creating a breathtaking spectacle. Tourists flock to this location to witness its beauty.

The next destination is Truc Lam Pagoda, which is a one-hour drive from the waterfall. This means riding back into the city. There is no entrance fee to the pagoda. Truc Lam Pagoda is a Japanese Zen Buddhist temple that blends Japanese Zen Buddhism with Vietnamese culture.

The viewpoint offers stunning views of Tuyen Lam Lake.

After visiting the temple, we took a cable car to enjoy the view of Da Lat city. The cable car ticket booth is located on the lower floor of the restaurant opposite the parking lot at the temple entrance. There are two types of tickets available: one-way and return. We chose the round-trip option, which cost 80,000 VND per person.

The boat ride to the viewpoint takes approximately 30 minutes (15 minutes each way). The view is stunning and very enjoyable.

After a short boat ride, you will arrive at the other side of the river. This side offers a buffet-style restaurant and a coffee shop where you can relax and enjoy the scenery.

Before leaving the temple, we stopped for lunch at the restaurant near the cable car station. The food was decent and the prices were reasonable.

This is a paragraph with text centered.

The next stop is Datanla Waterfall, which is only a 7-minute drive from Truc Lam Monastery.

Don't miss the thrilling roller coaster ride!

A round-trip ticket costs 80,000 VND per person. Alternatively, you can walk down at your own pace if you prefer a more leisurely experience.

Descending to the bottom, you will find a waterfall. It is not a very large waterfall, but it is beautiful and has several tiers. This place is popular with tourists who come to enjoy various activities.

After relaxing for a while, we continued our journey to Garden hydrangeas, which is approximately a 30-minute ride from the waterfall. The entrance fee is 15,000 VND per person.

The interior boasts a stunning hydrangea garden with numerous photo opportunities. Flower photography enthusiasts will not be disappointed. Additionally, the location offers refreshing beverages for purchase.

Unfortunately, we only had half an hour here as it was getting late. We then moved on to the Crazy House, which cost 50,000 VND per person. The house is beautifully designed, like stepping into a fairytale land, perfect for tourists who like quirky angles.

This is a paragraph with text centered.

The interior features interconnected pathways that lead to the highest point, offering stunning views of Dalat city.

After leaving Crazy House, we stopped by Lam Vien Square, which features unique and stylish buildings housing cafes and a shopping mall.

The surrounding area is like a large public park, and it is also next to Xuan Huong Lake. In the evening, many people come out to do activities and relax.

After taking photos and relaxing, we returned to our accommodation to check in and unpack our belongings in our rooms.

We then went for a stroll at the Dalat Night Market.

The market is located within walking distance from the accommodation. It is bustling with people at night and offers a wide variety of local food options.

Please translate the following sentence from Thai to English:

Vietnamese pizza is truly delicious, you must try it!

We love this 'soy milk' so much! It's not too sweet, and it's perfect for a refreshing drink on a cool day.

Day 3

We woke up at 5:30 am today. After showering and getting dressed, we went to find something to eat near the hotel. There is a bakery in front of the hotel.

After finishing our meal at 7:00, a mini-bus will pick us up and take us to another location to board a tour bus.

On the way to Mui Ne, the bus will stop once for a break. There will be food and drinks for sale, and hammocks for you to relax in. It takes about 5 hours to get to Mui Ne from Dalat.

This is a paragraph with text centered.

Upon arriving at the Mui Ne parking lot, we saw taxis waiting for passengers. According to our GPS, the hotel we were staying at was about 2 kilometers away, so we decided to walk. However, after walking for a while, we couldn't take the heat anymore, so we decided to call a taxi. The taxi fare was 30,000 VND, and we arrived at the Mui Ne Sports Hotel. The hotel cost 698 baht per night, and we booked it through Agoda. After checking in, we booked our return tickets to Ho Chi Minh City for the next day through the hotel. The tickets cost 160,000 VND each and were for a sleeper bus, similar to the one we took from Ho Chi Minh City. We also rented a motorbike to explore Mui Ne for 160,000 VND.


This is a paragraph with no text.

Before exploring Mui Ne, we stopped for lunch at a restaurant behind the hotel called Le Miracle-Chill & Grill. It's a restaurant with a nice atmosphere by the sea, but unfortunately, the food took a long time to prepare.

Please translate the following sentence from Thai to English: "สวัสดีครับ"

Please translate the following sentence from Thai to English:

After lunch, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon. The first place we went to was Fairy Stream. When we arrived, the tour group was just leaving, so it was very crowded.

This area features sand dunes sculpted by water and wind erosion, creating stunning formations reminiscent of Thailand's "Ghost Town" (Pae Muang Phi). The path leads deep into the dunes, following a stream. Visitors can choose to wear shoes and wade through the cool water or leave their footwear at the entrance.

Along the road, there are shops selling food and souvenirs. It is very windy here, so it is recommended to bring sunglasses.

The next stop on our journey was a fishing village. Here, we encountered the traditional way of life of the local people. We witnessed scenes of fish and shrimp drying in the sun, as well as various types of boats used for fishing, including both conventional vessels and the unique-looking "kradan" boats.


A Vietnamese uncle asked us if we wanted to try riding a boat, but we didn't have much time, so we declined. We felt a little regretful.

Our stay here was brief, only about 30 minutes, before we continued our journey. The strong winds made for a challenging ride, requiring us to proceed cautiously. After a 40-minute ride, we arrived at the White Sand Dunes (White Sand Dunes Muine).

The entrance fee is 15,000 VND per person. At the entrance, you can rent an ATV for 600,000 VND to drive up to the top of the sand dunes. The ATV can accommodate two people. You can choose to drive yourself or have the driver take you up. We initially wanted to drive ourselves, but the sand got too high, so we let the driver take over. It was a lot of fun! If you don't want to rent a car, you can walk in. It might be a bit far, but it's also enjoyable because the scenery is beautiful everywhere.

Please provide the text you want translated, and I will be happy to assist you.

The sun is setting, and we need to hurry to our next destination. It takes about 30 minutes to reach the Red Sand Dunes (Mune). We don't need to take a car because we can walk across the street to get there.

By the time we reached the Red Sea, the sun had already set, casting a soft glow over the desert landscape.

The Red Desert may be smaller than the White Desert, but it is equally beautiful, especially during sunset, creating a romantic atmosphere. A popular activity here is sandboarding, with children often approaching tourists to sell rides. However, we opted not to participate as we were starting to feel hungry.

After returning from the Red Sea, we drove around looking for seafood restaurants to eat at. We were spoilt for choice as there were restaurants all along the way back to our accommodation. In the end, we decided on this restaurant, Bo Ke Lucky. We saw that it was not far from our accommodation and it also looked quiet and peaceful with a beachfront setting. The dishes we ordered were lobster and seafood tom yum. The seafood here was fresh and the prices were not too expensive.

Day 4

We woke up at 5:30 am today. For breakfast, we had instant noodles because there weren't many restaurants open in the morning. After breakfast, we checked out of the hotel and waited for our ride in the lobby. At 8:00 am, a car picked us up.

It takes about 5 hours to travel from Mui Ne to Ho Chi Minh City. Once we arrived at the parking lot in Ho Chi Minh City, we walked to our hotel, which was about 1.1 km away. We booked a hotel called Yellow House Saigon Hotel for 596฿ per night (including breakfast) through Agoda. The room here may not be very big, but it looks clean and safe, and the owner also gave us friendly advice on tourist attractions.

After checking in, we set off on our exploration of Ho Chi Minh City. This day felt like a more serious exploration than the first, and we realized that crossing the street in Ho Chi Minh City was even more thrilling than riding a roller coaster in Dalat.

Due to the heavy traffic and the fact that vehicles were traveling everywhere, even on the sidewalks, it was initially challenging to navigate. However, we quickly adapted and began to enjoy the bustling atmosphere.

Our first stop was the Independent Palace.

The entrance fee is 40,000 VND per person. This is the site of the former South Vietnamese presidential palace, built in 1868. It is a beautiful building with impressive architecture.

The interior is luxuriously decorated and clearly divided into different rooms, such as the President's Room, the Guest Reception Room, the Cabinet Meeting Room, etc. There is also information about each room for us to read and learn.

And before we continue, we stopped for coffee at Highlands Coffee, which is located in front of the Presidential Palace. As the weather was getting hot, we needed to have something cold to drink.

This coffee shop has many branches throughout Ho Chi Minh City and the taste is delicious too.

After taking a break, we continued to the War Remnant Museum. There was a long queue at the entrance. The entrance fee was 40,000 VND per person.

This is an exhibition site commemorating the events of the Vietnam War. Upon entering the museum, you will find a display of military equipment in front of the building, such as airplanes, helicopters, tanks, etc.

Upon entering, visitors are greeted by a captivating display of photographs that vividly depict various stories. Additionally, a souvenir shop offers a wide selection of mementos for purchase.

This post office offers a variety of services, including mail delivery, collectible stamps, and adorable postcards. We even had the chance to send postcards to friends in Thailand!

Please translate the following sentence from Thai to English: "สวัสดีครับ"

Please translate the following sentence:

Just a short walk across the street, you'll find the Notre-Dame Cathedral Basilica of Saigon, widely considered one of the most magnificent churches in Vietnam.

This iconic landmark attracts numerous tourists daily. Unfortunately, the church was closed to the public during our visit. Nevertheless, we enjoyed strolling around the grounds and capturing its beauty through photographs.

Please translate the following sentence from Thai to English:

After walking around for a while, it was time for dinner. Today, we planned to go back to The Cafe Apartment again to take pictures of the building and then find something to eat there.

This nine-story building, once an aging apartment complex, has been transformed into a vibrant hub of cafes, boasting nearly 30 unique shops within its walls.

A variety of establishments, including restaurants, cafes, dessert shops, beauty salons, clothing stores, and even bookstores, are all housed within the same building.

Translation:

After taking photos, we went to find something to eat on the top floor. There are two ways to get up there: you can walk up the stairs or take the elevator. However, if you take the elevator, it will cost 3,000 VND per person. Today, we planned to eat at two restaurants. The first one was Hiroshima, which is located on the 7th floor.

This Japanese restaurant boasts a delightful ambiance. We were fortunate to secure a table on the balcony, where we enjoyed a refreshing breeze and stunning views. The food was authentic and flavorful, staying true to its Japanese roots.

The text is empty.

After we were full, we went to the next shop. We walked down the stairs to the 4th floor, where we found a shop called Thinker & Dreamer. The name of the shop is very cute.

This small cafe is adorned with various types of plants, creating a lush and refreshing atmosphere. The interior is white, decorated in a simple, minimalist style.

The beverage menu offers a selection of teas and coffees for your enjoyment.

After relaxing for a while, we went to see the nightlife on Pham Ngu Lao Street. It was a 20-minute walk from the Cafe apartment.

This area is similar to Khao San Road in Thailand, with delicious restaurants and nightlife.

We took a short walk to find something to drink before returning to our accommodation, as we had to wake up early the next day to check out.

Day 5

We woke up at 6 am today, packed our belongings, checked out, and had breakfast at the hotel.

We're all set! This morning, we have plans to go shopping at the Cho Ben Than Market before heading back. It's about a 15-minute walk from our accommodation.

This market offers a wide variety of goods, including clothing, snacks, handicrafts, household items, souvenirs, and more. Don't miss the opportunity to sample delicious Vietnamese cuisine at affordable prices.

After shopping, we took bus number 152 in front of the market to the airport.

Thank you to everyone who has followed our journey and photos. See you again on our next trip. ◡̈
