The Tuyen Lam Lake National Tourism Area in the Central Highlands province of Lam Dong has met all UNESCO criteria to become an outstanding tourism area in Asia-Pacific.
According to a notification from the President of the Vietnam Federation of UNESCO Associations, Tuyen Lam will officially receive the title during the Vietnam-India cultural and economic exchange and a ceremony to honor intellectuals, managers, scientists, social activists, entrepreneurs and businesses in Asia-Pacific in New Delhi on August 3.
Tuyen Lam Lake, six kilometers south of Da Lat, a famous tourist destination of Lam Dong, has a water surface of 350 hectares.
It was created by Tia stream up the Da Tam river.
No one knows when and why it was called Tuyen Lam, but maybe because of the grandiose nature around it - stream and forest were close to each other.
Tuyen stands for stream, and Lam stands for forest in Chinese Vietnamese.
The lake and its surrounding have fresh air, tranquil atmosphere and diversified natural landscape.
It will become a big attraction with unique types of tourism such as sight-seeing, camping, health caring, trekking, mountaineering, fishing, visiting revolutionary base and other activities for sport and recreation, especially eco-tourism.
Viewed from a cable car or seen from above, Tuyen Lam is as a miniature ocean with each oasis on the lake a continent.
One will feel the immensity between sky and water surface and discover a very different Da Lat.
