Coffee shop #3: Happy hill coffee in a space close to nature in Da Lat

Continue to be interesting cafes that I have visited. This is a cafe quite far from the city center, it's called Happy Hill, located on a hillside by Tuyen Lam Lake in Da Lat. This is a beautiful natural lake surrounded by low hills and pine forests, so this cafe owns attractive views and landscapes, as close to nature as possible. To get here, we had to go around the road leading from the lake's dam to the end of the lake, which is also the end of the road. We found it by accident while walking the path of the Purple Flower Phoenix around the lake on a cool and sunny afternoon.

Here there is no space to enjoy drinks indoors, it's more of an outdoor space. The bar is just a small wooden house, all tables and chairs are placed in different locations, interspersed with trees or the height of the mountainside from top to bottom. There are also many different types of flowers grown here, the most famous of which is the hydrangea. Not too crowded in such a large space, it's wonderful. Because it has many designs to decorate the space to take pictures, young people often bring a noisy and messy atmosphere.

What's not so good here is that they use plastic cups for drinks on the spot. Don't know the reason for that choice, but it will detract from the customer's beverage experience. Personally, I like iced milk coffee, but it should be served in glass or ceramic cups, wood is much better with a plastic cup and using a straw. That's why we don't use coffee, but instead use lemon tea. My friend brought his guitar and played soft music in the peaceful surroundings here.

What I like about this is the wooden walkways and trails, it leads up and down and is as enjoyable as a walk. The closely pressed trees seem to increase curiosity for what lies ahead. They certainly took into account the fun of the experience, and I bet small decorations like an old bicycle, wooden suspension bridge, rocking chairs, and large mirror all contribute to the creations. The unique beauty of this garden (I like to call it a small garden).

We moved down to the lower corners closer to the water's edge, because the sunset created halos that were reflected on the lake's surface. Sightseeing tourist boats passing by need to get a closer look and see it tear through the calm waters. This place is so quiet next to nature, it doesn't have many civil works there so it is quite suitable for deep conversations and contemplation in search of a deep sense of peace.

It will make you find a little joy and happiness in your heart just like the name itself. If you go to Da Lat city, it can be a remarkable place.
See you in the next series.

Hello @crazy-bee
This is a wonderful location for a coffee shop. Nothing beats having a nice cup of coffee surrounded by vast nature.
Thanks for sharing it with us.
Have a nice weekend:)

Thank you. It seems more suitable for the morning when there is dawn opposite, and also cool enough to enjoy a hot drink.
