Especially, We can experience the longest Alpine Coaster in Southeast Asia (optional)

Pongour waterfall: One of the largest waterfalls in Vietnam,  the most beautiful waterfall in the Central Highlands.
What makes Pongour truly unique is its rugged, multi-tiered structure, which gives the waterfall a more architectural, sculptural quality. The waterfall appears to flow over wide, rectangular steps, giving it the appearance of a series of natural terraces that stretch across the landscape. 

Truc Lam Zen monastery: The monastery is surrounded by lush forests, clear lakes, and stunning natural scenery. This serene setting enhances the monastery's reputation as a spiritual retreat, especially as the sun is setting on the lake.
Beyond being a place of worship, the Trúc Lâm Zen Monastery is also a center for learning and cultural exchange.
