Van Hoa Plateau

Van Hoa Plateau is a highland area at about 400 meters elevation in Son Hoa District, Dak Lak Province (formerly Phu Yen Province), about 40 km northwest of Tuy Hoa city. Known for its cool climate, red basalt soil and agricultural landscapes, the plateau features flower farms, fruit gardens and rural scenery. It is a popular day-trip destination for sightseeing, photography and experiencing highland farming life.

Visitors can expect a broad, open plateau with rolling hills, agricultural fields, flower farms and scattered gardens set in a cooler climate than the coast. The area includes viewpoints, farm attractions such as BB Farm and Long Van Garden, small lakes and rural roads lined with cassava, pepper and fruit plantations. Facilities are simple and rural, with farm cafes, photo spots and walking paths. The landscape is best explored by motorbike or car between farm sites.

Van Hoa Plateau is an agricultural highland developed during the 20th century for cultivation of industrial crops and later diversified into fruit and flower farming. It has been promoted by provincial tourism authorities as a rural and eco-tourism destination within Son Hoa District.

The plateau area is home to ethnic minority communities including Ba Na, Cham and E De, whose farming traditions and rural markets contribute to the cultural character of the highland. Local agricultural practices and seasonal flower cultivation are central to visitor experience.
