Clay Tunnel tours with best prices and high quality in 2026

More than just a tourist attraction, the Clay Tunnel has become a prominent highlight in all-inclusive Da Lat tours, offering an experience that combines artistic exploration with relaxation in nature. Located near Tuyen Lam Lake, about 13–14km from the city center, construction began in 2010 and was completed around 2012, boasting an impressive length of over 1,000–2,000 meters. It is considered one of the largest clay sculpture projects in the world, using entirely local, eco-friendly materials. When joining the tour, visitors don't need to worry about transportation or itineraries; they can simply enjoy a well-organized and professional journey.

The special feature of the tour is guiding you to fully explore a "living museum" space—where the history of Da Lat from its early origins to modern times is recreated through intricate handcrafted sculptures. Additionally, the tour integrates many prominent destinations such as Datanla Waterfall, Truc Lam Zen Monastery, Linh Phuoc Pagoda, and Da Lat Railway Station, creating a full 1-day – budget-friendly – multi-experience journey. With an optimized itinerary, dedicated tour guide, and all-inclusive services, this is an ideal choice for exploring Da Lat in a relaxed yet comprehensive and memorable way.

The Clay Tunnel is not merely a sightseeing pathway, but a continuous series of sculptures that fully recreate Da Lat's development history through thoughtfully arranged spaces:

• First section of the tunnel: Depicts pristine forests, the lives of indigenous people, and the early exploration of the Da Lat land.
• Central area: Recreates iconic landmarks such as Da Lat Railway Station, Pedagogical College, churches, pagodas, and ancient villas. Highlights include vintage cars, Vespas, and steam locomotives—distinctive marks of the old mountain town.
• Final section – Modern Da Lat: Showcases the city's transformation and growth in the new era from a modern and creative perspective.
• Clay House & Outdoor Area: The basalt red clay house holding a Vietnam record, combined with an eco-garden featuring streams, deer, and natural miniature landscapes.
• Infinity Lake & Check-in Park: A prominent "virtual living coordinate" (photo spot) with a stunning reflecting lake, especially impressive at sunset.

Located near Truc Lam Zen Monastery and Tuyen Lam Lake, this area offers a peaceful ambiance where art and nature harmonize beautifully. This combination creates a destination that is both rich in experiential value and leaves a deep impression on your Da Lat journey.
