Lak Lake

Lak Lake is 55 km (34 mi) away from the center of Buon Ma Thuot, and the upper reaches of the Chư Yang Sin Mountains with an altitude of 2,442 m (8,012 ft).

And the place with the largest number of domesticated elephants has a rich ecosystem of flora and fauna, some of which are listed in the Red Book of Endangered Wildlife in Vietnam.

According to the local legend of the Mnong people, a long time ago, the god of fire defeated the god of water, which brought severe drought to the village of the Mnong people, so the villagers moved to settle near Lak Lake.

Lok Lake is the place where Bao Dai, the last emperor of the Nguyen dynasty, went to Buon Ma Thuot for summer vacation and hunting.

On a hill by the lake, there is Bao Dai's palace, which is a three-story building with modern architectural style.
