Da Lat Railway Station is a historic railway station in Ward 10, Da Lat City, Lam Dong Province, Vietnam. Built between 1932 and 1938 during the French colonial period, it is noted for its distinctive Art Deco architecture with three high gables inspired by the Lang Biang mountains. Recognized as a national historical and cultural relic, it no longer serves regular national rail services but operates as a tourist attraction with a short heritage train to Trai Mat.

Visitors can expect a well-preserved French colonial Art Deco station with three pointed gables, bright yellow facade, and stained-glass windows. Inside are ticket counters, waiting halls, and displays of historic railway equipment including a vintage steam locomotive. Outside, the platform and tracks are used for a short tourist train to Trai Mat. The setting is urban and compact, surrounded by gardens, suitable for sightseeing, photography, and short train rides.

Constructed from 1932 to 1938 as part of the Da Lat - Thap Cham railway line under French colonial administration, designed by architects Moncet and Reveron. The line was built to connect the hill station of Da Lat with the lowlands. The station features Art Deco style combined with local highland communal house elements. It was recognized as a National Historical and Cultural Relic in 2001.

An iconic symbol of Da Lat city and French colonial architectural heritage in the Central Highlands. The station represents the city's history as a former French hill station and remains a cultural landmark and popular visitor attraction reflecting early 20th-century railway heritage.
