is about 5km from the centre, on the way to Langbiang Mountain and Suoi Vang
Lake. Besides traditional kinds like rose, lily, chrysanthemum, this 7-ha-farm
is famous for the dominance of eustomas. This kind of flower has made the name
of Langbiang Farm all over the country.

walk through 20 greenhouses stretching from the slope to the foot, which is
enough to fascinate, as well as to tire visitors’ foot, it would be so relaxing
to visit the large flower exhibition room and listen to music.
