The Domaine De Marie (Dominion of Marie) Church is one example of that interaction between the two cultures. Today, it is not only a place for the local people to worship but also a destination for visitors from just anywhere.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMKGaF3RulaWYsi2nMWEx61umIFPEEpKiyJtaXioSJ_Fj-kdBfrGKLfpiVVStPmb_sIg6vkBgvRzJ4VMiipAcTbAToB9Zi45bAfeH8pi5koySu6AdkyYUZAbAXMMJfxUBZZ_7YcMmGdgZq/s1600/Domaine+de+Marie+Church.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Domaine de Marie Convent Dalat" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMKGaF3RulaWYsi2nMWEx61umIFPEEpKiyJtaXioSJ_Fj-kdBfrGKLfpiVVStPmb_sIg6vkBgvRzJ4VMiipAcTbAToB9Zi45bAfeH8pi5koySu6AdkyYUZAbAXMMJfxUBZZ_7YcMmGdgZq/s1600/Domaine+de+Marie+Church.jpg" title="Domaine de Marie Convent Dalat" /></a></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> The Domaine de Marie Church, also called Mai Anh Church or Cherry Church, is home to the Roman Catholic nuns of the Mission of Charity. Actually, that's why many people think that there's a feminine charm attached to the architecture of the church. Located on a nice hill at 1 Ngo Quyen St., Ward 6, nearly 0.6 mile southwest away from the city center, it is a 29.6-acre architectural complex consisting of the main church and two convents. It offers a scenic panoramic view of the city. It was built from 1930 to 1943 following the 17th century French style. Before 1975, this is the main abbey with more than 50 female nuns, most of which are Vietnamese who carry out social activities like opening orphanages and kindergarten.  However, because its architecture is the harmonious combination of Western art and Vietnamese folk art, the church definitely stands out from other ones created at the same era.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <b>What to see</b></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> The façade of the building is designed as an isosceles triangle with many small arch-shaped windows, and a cross on the top. Right at the center of the façade is a grand rose-shaped window, a detail which usually appeared in the architecture of French church at the end of the 17th century. The walls are decorated with the Normandy style which allows creative manipulation of lights: dark-bright, solid-hollow, etc. The Vietnamese part, however, does not subside.<br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> The Vietnamese arrangement of this church makes it special and different from the classical churches of Europe. The roofs of the church have their origin from the design of Nha Rong, a typical type of stilt house in Central Highlands, <b><a href="http://things-todo-in-vietnam.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Vietnam</a></b>.  Even though the huge and steep roofs look pretty bland, the elegant stained glass windows make them a work of arts and illuminate the interior of the Domaine de Marie Church. The 3m-high-statue of Mary is another example of the interaction. It is created by a French architect named Jonchère in 1943, but resembles the image of a Vietnamese woman. This statue was a present from the Indochina governor's wife, who used to worship at the church and generously donated for the renovations of the construction.

Unfortunately, during a severe storm in 1932, both dams were destroyed. Between 1934 and 1935, a larger dam was built of boulders below the sites of the two previous dams to create one large lake. At that time, the French named it Grand Lac (large lake), but in 1953 it was renamed Xuan Huong Lake to express the people’s appreciation to the famous Vietnamese female poet in the 19th century who has the same name.

Nowadays, visitors can not only enjoy strolling along the lakeside but also resting under the conifers, pedal-boating on the lake while admiring the spectacular architecture of Thuy Ta Pavilion. Try the elegant swan boat ride, it's the best way to discover the beauty of the lake. Having a cup of coffee overlooking the lake is another suggestion. As a major attraction of Dalat, the lake is a place for people from both inside and outside the city to meet, talk and fall in love.

Hang Nga guesthouse, also known as the “Crazy House,” is a piece of artwork that really surpasses the limit of people’s imagination. Designed by <b><a href="http://things-todo-in-vietnam.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Vietnamese</a></b> architect and impressionist Dang Viet Nga, this extraordinary building of non-rectilinear shapes has appeared in many international architectural journals and finally made its way to the list of the world’s ten most creative buildings (according to the Chinese People’s Daily).</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <b>Location and history<br /></b></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> The house is located at 3 Huynh Thuc Khang St., Ward 3, <b><a href="http://things-todo-in-vietnam.blogspot.com/search/label/da-lat" target="_blank">Dalat City</a></b>, covering an area approximately 1,600m2. Stemming from the need to build something completely on her own, Architect Nga's house was started constructing in 1990. The construction as well as the process of claiming for possession of this house are both long stories. Started from scratch, there was time that Ms. Nga was on the verge of bankruptcy when all banks refused to lend her. It was at this point that she came up with the idea of selling tickets for tourists visiting the house. Moreover, after 18 continuous years and 6 times filing, she has been given the possession of this house, as well as its recognition as a piece of art. Still, she doesn't want to relax at all but is going to add up more constructions, such as a communal house inside the existing area.<br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <b>Unique architectural design<br /></b></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> As the intention of the architect is to make a fairy tale house, the “crazy house” resembles a tree with uneven windows, tunnel-shaped stairways, etc.  Both the exterior and the interior of the guesthouse are created and decorated with twisting organic forms and very few right angles. The hollow “tree” extends in many directions, rising above to reach to the sky of the amazing Dalat. Walking along the cave-shape hallways inside the house is not simply a visit but an exhilarating experience, a departure from the norm; wild mushrooms and spider webs popping up on your way is not unusual.  Besides, the guesthouse is really a spectacular construction with ten themed guest rooms such as the tiger room, the eagle room, the ant room and the kangaroo room…, with decorations and handcrafted furniture matching the theme. According to Viet Nga, each room has its own meaning: the tiger room refers to the Chinese; the eagle room describes the American; and the ant room represents the Vietnamese, etc. <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Even though it is theoretically a hotel, Hang Nga Guesthouse is today regarded as a “museum” of dream, childhood, abnormality, etc. Everyone has their own interpretation of the house, as well as their own experience but all of them agree on one thing: the guesthouse is so pure and natural that they were once again lost in their childhood dream.<br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <b>Visit here</b></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> For a small fee of VND 20,000, tourists can visit the house as a museum of contemporary architecture which is nowhere else to be find in the world<br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <b>Stay here</b></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Single room costs $34-$47/night while double room's price ranges from $47-$84/night.

However, it was largely unused since abandonment of the railway (due to attack) during the later years of the Vietnam War. In 1991, 7km of the track between Dalat and Trai Mat were reconstructed and launched into operation for tourists.</div> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJP2CV1IpLMBkDNj9eBMJ8gqsTolCWQDagy4YGCgfm-k-7oPUbURWwBKEhllxzeXNoqWbUJauTEoqH_M-0-Nb-2qPp7u6mU6zgxXyG1TBCf0_RpzDGLEclG4b0QEAYhnmKj0e0JUn8Iztv/s1600/Dalat_Old_Station.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Dalat railways station, Dalat hotels" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJP2CV1IpLMBkDNj9eBMJ8gqsTolCWQDagy4YGCgfm-k-7oPUbURWwBKEhllxzeXNoqWbUJauTEoqH_M-0-Nb-2qPp7u6mU6zgxXyG1TBCf0_RpzDGLEclG4b0QEAYhnmKj0e0JUn8Iztv/s1600/Dalat_Old_Station.jpg" title="Dalat railways station, Dalat hotels" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a class="_Epb irc_tas i3598" data-href="http://www.indochinatravelservice.com/Travel/Vietnam/DaLat/Dalat_Old_Station/" data-noload="" data-ved="0CAUQjhxqFQoTCJe034u9uscCFQlwjgodnLMCUQ" href="https://www.google.com.vn/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&ved=0CAUQjhxqFQoTCJe034u9uscCFQlwjgodnLMCUQ&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.indochinatravelservice.com%2FTravel%2FVietnam%2FDaLat%2FDalat_Old_Station%2F&ei=6UHXVdebCYnguQSc54qIBQ&psig=AFQjCNHcPj-upgN9ESgGXYKy0RNm0ataKA&ust=1440256868689414" jsaction="mousedown:irc.rl;keydown:irc.rlk" style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.2); background-color: #f1f1f1; color: #660099; cursor: pointer; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 22px; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; white-space: nowrap;"><span class="irc_pt" dir="ltr" style="color: #d6d6d6; unicode-bidi: -webkit-isolate;">Dalat railways station, Dalat hotels</span></a></td></tr> </tbody></table> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Being part of French colonists’ plan to turn Dalat into a paradise in Indochina, the 1500m-above-sea-level railway is now located at 1 Quang Trung St.<br /><br /> <div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"> <b><span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 13.5pt;">>><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://funnylovequote.net/" target="_blank">funny love quotes</a> </span></b>cheerful sayings about love, loving, relationships and feelings.<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div> </div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <b>What to see</b></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Regarded as one of the finest piece of colonial engineering and architecture in Vietnam, the station was designed in Art Deco style which is perfectly in harmony with local characteristics and culture. Its three high pointed roofs resemble the three peaks of Lang Biang Mountain or as some people say, the communal house of ethnic minorities in Central Highland of <b><a href="http://things-todo-in-vietnam.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Vietnam</a></b> (called Nha Rong). Each roof contains multi-color glass window and the central roof has a huge clock which has been restored recently.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> The other distinctive feature of Dalat railway station is the cog railways. The total length of the railway is 84km from Dalat to Thap Cham station with 16km of cog railway designed by Swedish engineers. Because of the mountainous geography, a system of cog railroad and locomotive is needed to provide the traction for uphill slopes and slow down the train when going downhill. The construction had to overcome many difficulties of the mountainous terrain so that it leaded to such a long period of time to complete which was 24 years.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <b>Train Travel</b></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> In the past, there were two daily trains from Dalat to Nha Trang and Dalat to Saigon with three compartments for passengers and one for goods. However, during the Vietnam wars, the railways and station became the target of bombing and they were seriously destroyed. After the fall of Saigon and the national unification in 1975, the railways were repaired and put back into use.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Since 1991, Dalat railway station provided tourists with the 7km route from <b>Dalat </b>to Trai Mat station, where visitors can enjoy the fresh peaceful daily lifestyle of local people, find fresh vegetables and fruits in the local market, as well as visit small Linh Phuoc Pagoda. Sitting on the train going on a slow speed, tourists can enjoy the full sight of Dalat from different angles when the train is winding its way along hillside, as well as the purest atmosphere of the highland. Though the seat is not quite so comfortable, this train trip is really worth a try, thanks to the unique feeling of the past that it brings about.</div>
