Da Lat Outskirts
Aerial views of the 'City of Eternal Spring' and its distinctive greenhouse-covered valleys.

Expansive grid-like patterns of coffee and tea estates stretching across the Bao Loc plateau.
Cat Tien National Park
Dense tropical foliage visible in the distance as the plane exits the mountainous terrain.
Saigon Skyline
Unbeatable views of Landmark 81 and the District 1 skyline as the plane aligns for landing at Tan Son Nhat.
