Taking a train at Dalat Station is the best way to get to Trai Mat. The seven-kilometer railway was built in 1930 by the French as part of the 84-kilometer line connecting Dalat and Phan Rang City. On May 27, Trai Mat still maintains a small old station, which may arouse nostalgic feelings and past memories for many.
In the area, tourists can admire immense pine hills scattered with French-style villas and indulge in the green tea plantations. Cop Cave and Linh Phuoc Pagoda are the must-see relics in Trai Mat.
