Clay Tunnel
Đường hầm điêu khắc (Đường hầm đất sét)
A themed park of red clay sculptures on the shore of Xuan Lam Lake, with miniature models recreating Da Lat's history and famous sights over the past century.
The Clay Tunnel, officially called the 'Sculpture Tunnel,' lies on the shore of Xuan Lam Lake. The entire park is sculpted from Da Lat's red basalt clay. Along the tunnel and walkways are miniature models of Da Lat railway station, Lang Biang Mountain, the old market, Xuan Huong Lake and other famous sights. There are also reliefs depicting the city's development, and a large castle said to be built entirely of clay. The path runs through pine forest, with views of Xuan Lam Lake, making it great for photos. Entry costs about 80,000–120,000 VND, and a visit takes about 1–1.5 hours. It is not far from Truc Lam Zen Monastery and Datanla Falls, so it can be included on the same southern route.
