Lang Biang peack - The legendary love story!!!
Only 12km from the central of Dalat, you will see Lang Biang Mountains standing imposingly and beautifully like the roof of Dalat city.
Legend says that the name Lang Biang was derived from the name a couple who were deeply in love with each other - the boy named K'lang and the girl named H’ Biang.
As the story goes, there was once a beautiful young maid named H’Biang born into the family of the Cil Chieftain. One day, while picking mushrooms in the woods, she was attacked by wolves. Fortunately, K’Lang, son of the Lach Chieftain came across and saved her. They then fell in love. However, the two tribes of Cil and Lach were foes; therefore, their love was not accepted.
To continue their love, they decided to leave the tribes, going to a high mountain. When H’Biang fell seriously ill, K’Lang decided to bring her back to her hamlet for treatment. However, when they reached the hamlet, the dwellers attacked them. Facing extreme danger, H’Biang reached out to take the arrow aimed at K’Lang. She passed away, leaving great pain to K’Lang. He returned to the mountain where they lived and committed suicide.
After the deaths of the couple, the two tribes regretted so much what they did that they decided to forget the hatred and merged the tribes into one ethnic group named the Co Ho. To commemorate the couple, the mountain where they lived was named Lang Biang and the stream running from the mountain was named Da Nhim, which means “tears” in the Co Ho language.
