If you are already familiar with vintage coffee shops or the usual check-in spots in Da Lat, you can change things up with an ancient-style space at Lac Hu Co Tran Da Lat. Located on Lam Van Thanh Street, Xuan Truong area, this place draws attention with its wooden architecture, tiled roofs, lanterns, and various settings perfect for ancient-style photography.
The appeal of Lac Hu does not lie in recreating a real historical ancient town. Instead, it is an inspiring space for sightseeing, coffee, and checking in, designed with an ancient Chinese aesthetic and numerous miniature landscapes tailored for photography.
Completely different from previous small-scale coffee models or photography studios, lac hu co tran da lat is built on a large scale with architecture deeply imbued with ancient East Asian characteristics. Here, every detail is meticulously cared for:
Da Lat has always been famous for its ethereal, misty veil, and when combined with the ancient town backdrop, this beauty becomes even more mystical and otherworldly. In the early morning or late afternoon, when a light mist drifts across the lake and covers the mossy tiled roofs, you will feel as if you are wandering into a genuine historical town hidden amidst a fairyland.
