Crazy House Dalat: Vietnam’s most surreal building

Two of the most curious and most photographed places in Da Lat are the Crazy House and the Maze Bar. Different in concept but very similar in spirit, both have become genuine icons of the city.

The Crazy House is also one of the most unusual places you can sleep in Da Lat.

Its architecture is pure madness: impossible staircases, passageways, bridges, irregular rooms and bold colors, in a design that doesn’t go unnoticed from any angle.

It was built in the late 1990s by architect Dang Viet Nga, and today it’s one of the most surreal and best-known hotels in the city.

Rooms start from 1,040,000 VND (~US$40), although you don’t need to stay overnight to walk through it. That’s precisely why it has become one of the most visited places in Da Lat.

Vietnam as a second home since 2019

My relationship with Vietnam got off on the wrong foot in 2019, after catching dengue fever in Cambodia — but a second chance turned that indifference into absolute passion. Today I live in Ho Chi Minh City, exploring the country with the calm and depth I lacked on that first visit.

From my base in Vietnam, I use my on-the-ground experience to help other travelers discover the country through this blog, proving that second chances — and well-planned trips — can change your life.

That same drive to share the world also led me to found Aventúrate a Viajar, a travel agency where I design and coordinate small group trips across Vietnam and many other countries.
