Riding the cable car in Da Lat

If you've visited the Crazy House already, and you're in search for the next kids-friendly activity in Da Lat, I'd recommend you take a ride with the cable car.  The cable car station si located on the outskirt of the city, on the top of a southern hill. The ride will take you over the valley to the site of a large, quiet  zen monastery that overlooks a beautiful lake. Enjoy the silent ride, glide over a superb valley, take a stroll on the grounds of the monastery and around the lake. Our children loved it.

A ride with the cable car costs 70.000 VND (return) per adults, children (from 1 to 1,3 meter) pay only 40.000 VND (return). As often in Vietnam, officers at the ticket counter are not too strict with age and height limit, and our 1,05-meter tall son didn't pay for the ride.

The Crazy House in Da Lat, Vietnam

The Crazy House is the work of a Vietnamese architect, the daughter of Ho Chi Minh's successor to the leadership of Vietnam. The house is a surprising mixture of architectural elements evoking the creations of Gaudi, with a touch of Hundertwasser for interior fittings. The Crazy House grows every year, since more than twenty years. It is an incredible labyrinth of narrow bridges, corridors, ladders, with few fantastically decorated rooms. The place is definitely a must-do with children, the kids loved getting lost in this unspeakable maze! Be careful though, as some high-level passages have no handrails and the works in the unfinished house are not child-safe. 

The Crazy House is also an hotel where you can stay with your family for approximately 60 USD.
