Riding a cable car from Robin Hill to Truc Lam Zen Monastery was one of our favorite moments in Da Lat, Vietnam. The panoramic views of the mountains and pine forests were spectacular, and it was amazing to see the city from a different angle.
In this article, we’ll share our Da Lat cable car experience and information on ticket prices, opening hours, how to get there, and things to do.
Da Lat cable car station is located on Robin Hill at an altitude of 1,517m above sea level.
Talented Austrian and Swiss architects designed the robin hill Da Lat cable car system and officially implemented it in February 2003.
The system includes 50 cabins with vibrant colors, presenting the beauty of Da Lat city.
The cable car has a total length of 2267m, crossing from Robin hill to Truc Lam Zen Monastery on Phuong Hoang Mountain. The journey is about 12 minutes.
The cable car operates from 7:30 am to 11:30 pm and operates again from 1 pm to 5 pm. Therefore, you should calculate your time carefully if you have a tight schedule.
The distance from Da Lat Central market to the cable car station is about 3.2 km, so it takes approximately 10 minutes to get there.
The scenery from the cable car was impressive. We could see Tuyen lam lake from afar.

Once you reach Truc Lam station, don’t forget to visit the monastery and immerse yourself in the tranquility of its surrounding environment.
It’s a great place to stop by and stay away from the hustle and bustle of life.
We had a short trek from Truc Lam monastery to Tuyen Lam lake, one of the best landmarks in Da Lat city.
Tuyen Lam Lake is more than 350ha wide, located in the middle of a vast green pine forest. The small oases create a charming poetic picture, and we were in awe when we first came here.
If you love outdoor activities, we recommend kayaking or simply renting a boat and exploring the scenery.
We enjoyed our time at The Seen House, a cafe with a serene lake view. The atmosphere was relaxing, and the coffee was tasty.
Returning to Robin hill after a relaxing time at Tuyen Lam lake, we stopped by Leguda Restaurant, a hotpot buffet offering a diversity of vegetables.
The hotpot soup was delicious, and we could enjoy the fresh and tasty delicacy of Da Lat.
