Where is Mang Den?
Mang Den is a small village in Kon Plong district, Kon Tum province. This place has become a remarkable tourist destination on the mountain tourism map. Mang Den village has an altitude of up to 1200m above sea level. Not only that, this place is also a plateau in the Truong Son range, so it has a temperate mountainous climate, cool and foggy all year round. That is why it is likened to a "miniature Da Lat".

A quiet town for those looking for a peaceful place to relax
For those who are passionate about the vast forests, and poetic hills with subtle features and do not like crowded places, Mang Den is the ideal place to visit. Although the tourism industry here is not as developed as Da Lat, Gia Lai, or Dak Lak but a lot of tourists love it because the village still retains its wild, quiet appearance through the seasons. From the city center, visitors can drive along the tens of kilometers long road along Mang Den village, to experience the feeling of crossing the roads and admire the green valley and the fog covering the way. Truly, there is really no place like Mang Den.
