History
During the 1890s, explorers in the area (including renowned bacteriologist Alexandre Yersin, protà © © © gà © © © of the renowned French chemist Louis Pasteur), then a part of the French colony of Cochinchina, asked the French governor-general , Paul Doumer, to create a resort center in the highlands. The governor agreed. The original intended site for the hill station is Dankia, but ÃÆ'â € ° tienne Tardif, a member of the road construction expedition of 1898-99, proposed this site instead. In 1907, the first hotel was built. Town planning is done by Ernest HÃÆ'  © brard.
France endowed the city with its villas and streets, and its Swiss charm remained to this day. HÃÆ' Â © brard includes necessary health complexes, golf courses, parks, schools, and homes but no industry. The legacy of the pesantren where children from all over Indochina were taught by French priests, nuns and expatriates still existed until the end of 1969. In 1929, the Christian Alliance and Missionaries established schools (Dalat International School) for Canadian and American children of missionaries serving in Southeast Asia. In 1965, the school was moved to Bangkok, Thailand; then in 1966 to Cameron Highlands in Malaysia and then, in June 1971, moved to its present location in Georgetown, Malaysia. There are Jesuit seminaries (such as Pius X Pontifical College) and other orders. The elite Vietnamese National Military Academy passed the first class of its future leader in 1950. There is an aviation school at Cam Ly Airport.
During World War II, Da Lat was the capital of the Indochina Federation, from 1939 to 1945.
In the mid-1950s, Vietnam Scout Association established their national training ground in Da Lat.
The only major involvement of Da Lat during the Vietnam War was in the Tet Tetan offensive of 1968. Fierce battles raged from 31 January to 9 February 1968. Most of the fighting took place between the South Vietnamese MP units stationed in Da Lat and Vi troops? T C? Ng (VC). American lawmakers were also involved in the fighting and suffered several MCHs during rocket attacks on their compound. Defeat and victory alternated between the two during a sporadic-yet-intense battle. However, South Vietnamese lawmakers can finally regain control? ÃÆ' L? T. It was stated that about 200 VCs were killed in action (KIA) during this battle. Although South Vietnamese MP forces are known to have significantly fewer KIAs, their wounded list is getting more stable during the engagement due to low supply and support periods. What ultimately saves South Vietnamese lawmakers is the fact that they hold a strong defensive position throughout Da Lat from the beginning to the end of the battle.

Architecture
Architecture? ÃÆ' L? T is dominated by the style of the French colonial period. ? ÃÆ' L? T Railway Station, built in 1938, is designed in the style of Art Deco architecture by French architects Moncet and Reveron, although it combines the high and tall roof features of Cao Nguyen communal buildings of the Central Highlands of Vietnam. The three roofs depict an art deco version of Trouville-Deauville Station Normandy. The unique design of the station - with its roofs, curved ceilings, and colored glass windows - made it recognized as a national historical monument in 2001. They designed the LycÃÆ' Â © e Yersin, which opened in 1927. Dominion Mary Church and Monastery, home to a Roman Catholic nun from the Charity Mission, was built in 1938 with a similar pointed roof style.
Of special note is the unconventional architecture of Wisma H? Ng Nga, known as "Crazy House". Described as a "fairytale house", the overall design resembles a giant banyan tree, combining sculptural design elements that represent natural shapes such as animals, fungi, cobwebs, and caves. Its architecture, which consists of complex, organic, non-rectilinear forms, has been described as an expressionist. Its creator, the Vietnamese architect Dang Viet Nga (also known as H? Ng Nga), who has a PhD in architecture from Moscow State University, has recognized the inspiration of the Spanish architect Catalan Antoni GaudÃÆ' in the design of the building. Visitors have a variety of similarities between homesteads and works of artists such as Salvador DalÃÆ' and Walt Disney. Since it opened in 1990, the building has gained recognition of its unique architecture, highlighted in various guidebooks and listed as one of the top ten most "weird" buildings in the People's Daily China. While looking funny, this plot was let down by construction debris and household rubbish behind the facade, and a lack of attention to security issues.
