A small electric train will carry visitors around Thung Lung Tinh Yeu (Love Valley) in Da Lat for free until the end of January.

The tour will start at the flower garden, pass through an eco-tourism site at the end of the valley, and continue through strawberry and passion fruit gardens.

The Da Lat Love Valley Tourism Joint Stock Company said it had invested VND1 billion (US$48,000) for the 35-seat train which can travel at 20km per hour. By Lunar New Year in early February, the company will put two more trains into operation to meet the rising demand during the country's longest holiday.-VNS
