On the hills of the city of thousands of flowers

About 40km from Da Lat city, there is a peaceful place on the hills with a lot of good energy. This place is covered with clouds all year round with pure air, mild climate, high enough to welcome clear dawns and romantic sunsets.

That is Samten Hills Dalat located on the highest hill in Don Duong, Lam Dong . Surrounded by majestic nature, spiritual architectural works are in harmony with the beautiful highland scenery. Wearing a pair of soft shoes, I walked on the red brick road leading up high, everywhere roses were blooming and fragrant. Under the afternoon sun, the scenery lit up magically, the walls and roofs reflected a sparkling golden color.

On the main courtyard with a panoramic view, I gazed at the mountains and hills all around, the cool breeze blowing in from the valley. The scene became even more spectacular as the sun gradually set, dyeing the sky a brilliant pink-orange.

The cool breeze gently rustled the leaves and trees, making the garden in front of the vegetarian restaurant even more poetic. The lights were lit up and twinkled with the twinkling stars. We chatted and dined with a rich menu of fresh, familiar agricultural products, simply prepared with rustic spices. Through the chef's careful hands, each dish retained its delicate color and flavor.

The later it gets, the more magical Satem Hills becomes. Under the lights, the Buddhist architectures glow magnificently. Colorful paintings and decorative motifs shine in the dark. Layers of white mist hang over the towers, roofs, and trees. In the quiet night and sacred space, the deep connection with nature is felt more clearly. The good energy accompanied us into a gentle, peaceful sleep.

The new day dawned with clear sunlight and melodious music filling the air. The whole valley was immersed in a sea of floating clouds. We walked slowly clockwise around the exhibition area.

The path takes on a “circular” shape, symbolizing the unbroken connection between the inner and outer worlds , with no beginning or end. Relaxation spreads as I focus on my inner breath, feeling my body full of health and my mind refreshed.

In the open and artistic space of the leaf-shaped restaurant, I enjoyed delicious food, a cup of fragrant coffee, and watched the majestic and dreamy Samten Hills, capturing the complete memory of a peaceful destination in the middle of quiet hills with magical energy.
