What can you do at Mongo Land Da Lat, how much are tickets, and when should you visit?
If you enjoy active attractions, start with the rainbow slide and Go-Kart track. Families with young children should visit the animal area first. Two hours is enough for a few main activities, photos, and a short break without rushing around the entire park.

The colorful tubing slide running down the hillside is probably the first thing you'll notice in photos of Mongo Land Da Lat. This outdoor attraction in the Ta Nung area also has Go-Karts, archery, grassy photo spots, and an animal area where you may see capybaras. Allow about two hours for your visit, and choose three or four activities rather than trying to do everything.
Where is Mongo Land Da Lat, and what are its opening hours?
Mongo Land is located at Group 16, Hamlet 1, Cam Ly - Da Lat Ward, Lam Dong Province, in the area formerly known as Ta Nung Commune. Older travel guides and map listings may still show the address as Ta Nung Commune, Da Lat City; both refer to the same general area.
The attraction is approximately 15 km from Da Lat Market, well outside the walkable city center, along the road leading toward Ta Nung Pass.

What time does Mongo Land Da Lat close?
Mongo Land opens from around 7:00 AM until 5:00 or 6:00 PM. In practice, treat 5:00 PM as the latest sensible time to finish your visit, since not every attraction keeps running until 6:00 PM.
Individual activities may stop operating before the park closes. Heavy rain can also temporarily suspend attractions such as tubing slides and Go-Karts.
Is Mongo Land in central Da Lat?
No. Mongo Land is outside the city center, toward Ta Nung Pass.
This matters when planning your day: a two-hour visit can easily take three to four hours overall once you include the drive there and back. A one-hour gap between two activities in central Da Lat is far too tight for Mongo Land. It works better as a dedicated morning outing or part of an afternoon exploring the Ta Nung area.
How much are Mongo Land Da Lat tickets in 2026?
Mongo Land ticket prices for 2026 are based on visitors' height rather than age alone.
| Visitor category | Admission and activities | Admission with a drink |
|---|---|---|
| Adults and visitors 1.3 m or taller | VND 120,000 | VND 140,000 |
| Children from 90 cm to under 1.3 m | VND 80,000 | VND 90,000 |
| Children under 90 cm | Free admission | Ask about drink eligibility |
Check the displayed prices at the ticket counter before paying.
What does the Mongo Land admission ticket include?
In 2026, the standard ticket covers general admission, access to the animal area, and several main activities, including:
- Dry tubing slides.
- Grass sliding.
- The rainbow slide.
- Archery.
- One Go-Kart ride.
- Photo opportunities around the Mongolian-style tents and landscaped areas.
Some sliding attractions and archery activities allow multiple turns, while Go-Kart access is generally limited to one ride. Confirm ride limits and which activities are running at the entrance.
Mongolian-style costume rentals, makeup services, professional photography, additional Go-Kart rides, and food or drinks outside your ticket package may cost extra.
Animal feed is another item worth checking: a portion may be included with admission, but not an unlimited supply. Ask the animal-area staff before purchasing extra feed.
Should you buy a regular ticket or a ticket with a drink?
A regular ticket is enough for a two-hour visit if you've brought water or plan to stop somewhere for refreshments afterward.
The drink package adds VND 20,000 to an adult ticket and VND 10,000 to a children's ticket. Check which drinks are eligible before paying, as the package may not include everything on the café menu.
For example, a family of two adults and two children between 90 cm and under 1.3 m should budget:
- VND 400,000 for four regular tickets.
- VND 460,000 for four tickets with drinks.
These totals exclude transportation, costume rentals, and other optional services.
What are the best things to do at Mongo Land Da Lat?
Mongo Land is more than a collection of colorful tents on a hillside. Its main appeal is the combination of outdoor activities, animal encounters, and photography in one location. The biggest attractions are the rainbow tubing slide, Go-Karts, archery, and the animal area. The open grassland and Mongolian-inspired photo settings fill the time between activities.
With only two hours, it's worth deciding which attractions you actually want to experience and which areas only need a quick photo stop.
Rainbow tubing slide
The first attraction to try
The rainbow slide is the activity I'd put first on a two-hour itinerary for couples or groups of friends.
The colorful sliding lanes run down the hillside, creating one of Mongo Land's most recognizable views. Visitors sit in specially designed tubes, which staff help position before sending them down the track.
Unlike grass sliding, you don't steer a small vehicle. The tube travels along the prepared slope, making this more about the sensation of movement than controlling your direction.
The slide can attract queues, especially when multiple groups arrive at the same time, so an open track, good weather, and a short line on arrival are your cue to head straight there.
Save the elaborate rental costume for after tubing. Long skirts, hair accessories, and jewelry can get in the way when sitting in the tube or walking around the slide area.
Before joining the queue, ask staff three things:
- What height and health restrictions apply?
- How many runs does one admission allow?
- Can people ride together, or must everyone use a separate tube?
Don't attach tubes together or change your riding position just to film a video. Follow the staff's instructions on the proper use of the equipment.
Anyone who dislikes speed can skip this one and still enjoy Go-Karts, the animals, and plenty of photo spots.
Go-Karts
Worth one ride, not your entire visit
Mongo Land has a Go-Kart track where visitors can drive small vehicles along a dedicated course, one of the activities that set it apart from Da Lat's many photo-focused hillside attractions.
One Go-Kart ride is included with standard admission in 2026. Because the number of rides is limited, ask at the entrance whether Go-Karts are operating and whether you need to exchange your ticket for a separate ride pass.
In a two-hour itinerary, the Go-Kart area takes approximately 15-20 minutes, including waiting, receiving instructions, and taking your turn. This is a planning allowance, not the actual duration of one ride.
One turn is enough for most visitors to try the experience. Groups who are really into Go-Karting should confirm the vehicle type, actual driving time, and additional ride prices before paying for more.
Children cannot automatically drive a Go-Kart simply because they have an admission ticket. Height requirements, vehicle types, and staff supervision rules may differ. Don't allow children to sit in or operate a vehicle without permission from the staff.
Grass sliding
An alternative to the rainbow slide
Grass sliding uses a small sliding vehicle or similar equipment on a designated slope. It suits anyone who wants a downhill activity without riding the larger rainbow tubing slide.
Unlike Go-Karting, you're not steering around a track. However, the difficulty and suitability of the activity depend on the equipment and the operating rules.
Because it looks gentler in photos, some families expect grass sliding to suit younger children, but promotional images can't tell you whether your child is allowed to ride. Ask staff to check your child's height and explain the correct riding position. A child who qualifies for a discounted admission ticket may still be too small for a particular ride.
A crowded grass sliding area is a good moment to visit the animals and come back later. Spending 40 minutes waiting for one activity isn't a good use of a two-hour family visit.
Archery
A short activity for friends and couples
Mongo Land also has an archery area with designated targets, fitting the park's nomadic theme.
The activity is straightforward: stand in the correct position, draw the bow, aim at the target, and release according to the instructor's directions. Anyone interested in trying it needs no previous archery experience.
Compared with the tubing slide, archery is easier to fit into a short schedule: allow roughly 10-15 minutes in your itinerary if the activity is operating and the queue is short.
First-time visitors should ask staff how to hold the bow, choose an appropriate draw strength, and stand correctly. Never collect arrows or walk toward the targets while another visitor is shooting.
Children should participate only when staff confirm that the equipment and activity are suitable for them, and parents should remain in the designated waiting area instead of stepping into the shooting lane to record videos.
Between archery and Go-Karts, people who enjoy driving will get more out of the Go-Karts, while archery suits anyone who'd rather avoid fast-moving activities.
Animal area
Sheep, alpacas, rabbits, and capybaras
This is probably the best part of Mongo Land for families with young children.
The park keeps several animal species, including sheep, goats, rabbits, alpacas, two-humped camels, and capybaras. The animals available for viewing can change according to their care needs and the park's operations.
Sheep are particularly popular for photos. Some animals may approach visitors when feeding is permitted and supervised by staff.
Let younger children watch from a short distance first; once they're comfortable, parents can accompany them to a designated feeding spot.
Don't pull animals' fur or ears, restrain them for photos, or chase them around the enclosure. Even animals accustomed to people can become startled or compete for food.
Only use feed approved by the animal-care staff, never biscuits, potato chips, sweets, or food brought from outside. Wash your hands with soap after touching or feeding animals, especially before eating.
Visitors concerned about animal welfare can observe the enclosure conditions and how interactions are managed. Watching and photographing from an appropriate distance is a perfectly good way to enjoy the animals without holding, petting, or feeding them.
Does Mongo Land Da Lat have capybaras?
Yes, in the animal area
Yes. Capybaras, the large semi-aquatic rodents native to South America, are among the animals at Mongo Land.
They're one reason the attraction has become popular with families and animal lovers. Capybaras have rounded bodies, short legs, and a notably calm appearance. In Vietnam, they're often affectionately nicknamed "bộ trưởng," or "minister."
Still, a capybara enclosure is no promise that every visitor can see, touch, or feed them at any time: animals may be resting, receiving care, or temporarily unavailable for close interaction.
Anyone coming mainly for the capybaras should call Mongo Land at +84 983 577 377 on the day of the visit and ask whether the capybara area is open.
Don't promise children that they'll definitely be allowed to hug or pet one. Watching is the main experience, and any close contact happens only when staff permit it.
Mongolian-style tents and costume photography
Outfit rental around VND 100,000-350,000
Mongo Land has several structures inspired by Mongolian yurts, along with open grassland and themed photography settings.
You can take good pictures without renting a costume: cream, brown, white, and deep red clothing tends to stand out against the grass and colorful tents.
Anyone who wants to rent a Mongolian-style outfit should check the available designs and prices first. Rental prices run around VND 100,000-350,000 per outfit, depending on the outfit and accessories. Ask whether hair styling, makeup, accessories, rental time, and deposits are charged separately.
Spend 45 minutes selecting an outfit, changing clothes, and arranging your hair, and there won't be much time left for the rides.
Costume rental can be worth the time for couples visiting mainly to take pictures. Groups who want to try the tubing slide and Go-Karts are better off in regular clothes: play first, then take photos afterward.
How should you spend two hours at Mongo Land?
Two hours is enough for the main highlights, but not for trying every activity several times. The following itineraries begin when you arrive at the entrance. Travel time from central Da Lat is not included in the 120 minutes.
Two-hour itinerary for couples or groups of friends
- Minutes 0-10
Buy tickets and check availability
Confirm the tubing slide and Go-Karts are operating.
- Minutes 10-40
Rainbow tubing slide
Go first if the queue is short.
- Minutes 40-60
Go-Karts or archery
Choose one main activity.
- Minutes 60-85
Animal area
Look for sheep, alpacas, and capybaras.
- Minutes 85-110
Grassland and yurts
Take group photos.
- Minutes 110-120
Water break and exit
Collect your belongings.
The 30-minute tubing allowance is the most variable part of this schedule. On a quiet day, you may finish quickly enough to add archery. On a busy day, the queue alone can take up a large part of your time.
Pick either Go-Karts or archery, whichever interests your group more, then save enough time for the animals and photo areas.
With a keen photographer in the group, agree on roughly 25 minutes for pictures at the end. Otherwise, it's easy to spend most of the visit stopping at every colorful background.
Two-hour itinerary for families with children
Young children need a different pace from an adult-focused itinerary, so choose activities where you can stop, move slowly, and change plans when necessary.
- Minutes 0-10
Enter and locate facilities
Find toilets, rest areas, and check ride restrictions.
- Minutes 10-45
Animal area
Observe and feed animals where permitted.
- Minutes 45-70
Grass sliding or another suitable ride
Ask staff about your child's eligibility.
- Minutes 70-90
Rest and drinks
Give children time to recover.
- Minutes 90-110
Grassland and tent photos
Choose nearby spots rather than walking across the park.
- Minutes 110-120
Wash hands and leave
Gather the family and belongings.
For children under three, watching animals, walking around the grassland, and taking family photos may be enough, without forcing them onto a sliding attraction.
Older children who enjoy physical activities may want more time on an age-appropriate ride, at the cost of a few photo spots.
Two adults with two children should divide responsibilities: one supervises the child on an activity, while the other handles bags, drinks, and the younger child. Expecting one person to carry a toddler, manage everyone's belongings, and film a ride at the same time is asking too much.
Two-hour itinerary for photography
A photo-focused visit reverses the priorities:
- Minutes 0-15
Admission and outfit
15 minutes for admission and choosing an outfit.
- Minutes 15-40
Change and prepare
25 minutes for changing and preparing accessories.
- Minutes 40-85
Yurts and grassland
45 minutes for photography around the yurts and grassland.
- Minutes 85-105
Animal area
20 minutes for permitted photography in the animal area.
- Minutes 105-120
Return the costume
15 minutes to return the costume and leave.
This schedule leaves almost no time for Go-Karts or the tubing slide. Professional-looking photos in several locations, with costume rental and hair styling, need 2.5-3 hours instead.
Is Mongo Land Da Lat suitable for children?
Mongo Land can be a good place for children to see animals and enjoy outdoor activities, but it isn't a fully indoor amusement park with smooth, level paths throughout.
The grounds include slopes, grass, and walking areas that may be uneven. Young children may need help moving around, particularly after rainfall.
What can children under 90 cm do?
In 2026, children under 90 cm receive free general admission.
For this age group, the most suitable activities are observing sheep, rabbits, and other animals, walking around the tent area, and taking photos with family.
You can also use the designated seating areas for breaks.
A child under 90 cm may not be allowed on the rainbow slide, so that alone isn't a reason to choose Mongo Land. Admission rules and ride requirements are different, and a young child should join a ride only when staff approve.
What about children between 90 cm and 1.3 m?
This height group generally qualifies for the children's ticket.
They can visit the animal area and photo spots, but participation in tubing, grass sliding, archery, or Go-Karts depends on the requirements of each attraction. There isn't one universal height rule covering every activity.
A child who doesn't meet the requirements for a ride can head to the animals or the tents instead of waiting while adults spend too long playing.
Should you bring a stroller?
A stroller can be useful when a toddler needs a rest, but not every path at Mongo Land is stroller-friendly: some sections have sloping ground, grass, or uneven surfaces. Ask staff about the most suitable route before heading deeper into the park.
Younger children need a hat, light jacket, drinking water, and spare clothes. Da Lat can feel cool in the early morning, but exposed grassy areas can still become quite sunny when the sky is clear.
Can older family members enjoy Mongo Land?
Yes, if they're mainly interested in scenery, gentle sightseeing, and photography. Visitors who have difficulty walking uphill, navigating uneven ground, or standing for long periods should consider the layout carefully.
Ask about seating areas, toilets, and the distance between attractions before leading the whole family through the park.
For a group with grandparents and young children, four or five activities back-to-back is too much; the animal area, one photo location, and one suitable activity are enough.
How do you get to Mongo Land Ta Nung?
Riding a motorbike from central Da Lat
From the Da Lat Market area, the usual route heads along Hoang Van Thu Street, passes Van Thanh Flower Village, and continues toward Ta Nung Pass. As you approach Hamlet 1, follow the mapped route and local signs for Mongo Land.
The trip is approximately 15 km from the city center and may take 30-45 minutes, depending on your starting point, traffic, and weather.
The road toward Ta Nung has slopes and bends, though experienced motorbike riders may find the daytime trip manageable in good conditions.
A car with a driver is the better choice for anyone without the appropriate motorbike license or who isn't comfortable riding on winding mountain roads.
International visitors also need to make sure their driving credentials are legally valid in Vietnam. A foreign driving license on its own won't cover every type of motorbike in the country.
Taking a taxi or private car
A car with a driver is the easier option for families with children, older travelers, or groups carrying photography equipment.
You can arrange a round-trip transfer from your hotel or book a private car for part of the day.
Families on a fixed schedule will find a round-trip transfer more convenient.
English-speaking travelers can show the driver the name "Mongo Land - Dalat, Ta Nung area" together with the selected map location, without trying to pronounce the full Vietnamese administrative address.
What other attractions can you combine with Mongo Land?
Mongo Land is on the Ta Nung route, so combining it with another nearby stop makes more sense than returning to central Da Lat and driving out again.
One option is Thuy Thuan Tourist Area, also in the Hamlet 1 area. Thuy Thuan is more focused on scenery, coffee, and places to sit and relax than on fast-moving amusement activities.
After spending two hours on outdoor games at Mongo Land, you may prefer a coffee break or lunch rather than visiting another park with similar attractions.
Is it better to visit Mongo Land in the morning or afternoon?
Morning: best for trying more activities
8:00-10:00 AM is a good target time for visitors who want to spend two hours on tubing, Go-Karts, and the animal area.
Arriving early may give you a better opportunity to enjoy activities before larger groups gather. Morning temperatures are also more comfortable than the midday heat on a clear day.
You could leave central Da Lat around 7:15-7:30 AM, depending on your hotel and the road conditions. Hotels around Nguyen Chi Thanh, Phan Boi Chau, or near Da Lat Market add some extra time for traffic through the central streets.
Booking another activity far away for exactly 10:00 AM is cutting it too fine, since you'll still need to walk to the entrance, collect your belongings, get into your vehicle, and travel to the next destination.
Afternoon: better for photography
Afternoon light can be softer and more flattering, provided the weather stays clear. The colorful tents and open grassland often look better in softer light than under the harsh midday sun.
However, afternoon rain is common during parts of Da Lat's wet season. From roughly May to October, check the forecast close to your travel date. Prioritize the morning if tubing and other outdoor rides are important to you.
For an afternoon visit, arriving around 1:30-2:30 PM is a practical choice.
Arriving close to closing time leaves too little room for a full sunset photo session: the park closes around 5:00-6:00 PM, and individual activities may stop before that.
Is Mongo Land worth visiting on a rainy day?
Mongo Land is primarily an outdoor attraction, so rain makes a noticeable difference.
Grass can become damp, sloping paths may be more slippery, and outdoor photo areas are less comfortable. Rides that use slides or vehicles also depend on suitable operating conditions.
The rainbow slide may close during rain, and staff shouldn't be pressured to run an activity that has been temporarily suspended. Heavy rain forecast for most of the day is a good reason to move the visit to a drier day, especially when tubing is your main goal.
Light rain won't always close the entire park, so you can ask which sections are operating and decide whether admission is still worthwhile.
What should you bring to Mongo Land?
A pair of comfortable walking shoes with good grip is more useful than high heels or slippery sandals. The park has grassy areas and slopes, so suitable footwear makes moving between attractions easier.
Photo lovers can wear simple, comfortable clothes for the activities first, then adjust their hair, change jackets, or add accessories for photography after tubing and Go-Karting.
Costume renters should bring a small bag for their phone, wallet, and personal belongings, and ask the rental counter how regular clothes and belongings should be stored before leaving the changing area.
Bring sunscreen, a hat, drinking water, and a light jacket. Da Lat's cool temperatures can be misleading. You can still spend a considerable amount of time in direct sunlight on the open grassland.
Do you need to book Mongo Land tickets in advance?
Individual visitors can generally buy tickets at the entrance, but it's sensible to check current prices and benefits shortly before visiting.
On weekends and holidays, or with a larger group, contact Mongo Land in advance to confirm admission arrangements, opening hours, and which attractions are operating.
Travelers who already have their own transportation can skip the full-day tours.
When buying from a third-party ticket seller, check the operator's name, validity date, cancellation policy, and exactly what the package includes, rather than relying on an old ticket-price photo or a vague promise that "everything is included."
Can English-speaking visitors get around Mongo Land easily?
Don't expect every ticket agent, ride operator, or animal-area staff member to speak fluent English.
It's helpful to save the attraction's name, your children's heights in centimeters, and the ticket package you want before arriving.
Useful questions include:
- "Does this ticket include the rainbow slide?"
- "Is the capybara area open today?"
- "What is the minimum height for this ride?"
- "How many Go-Kart rides are included?"
- "Where can I buy animal feed?"
For tubing, Go-Karts, and archery, ask for a demonstration if the instructions aren't clear. Don't begin an activity until you understand the required position, how to stop or finish safely, and what actions are prohibited.
Is Mongo Land Da Lat worth visiting?
Mongo Land is worth the trip if you want outdoor games and memorable photos in the same place. The rainbow tubing slide is its clearest selling point compared with Da Lat attractions that mainly offer landscaped backgrounds for photography.
Families with children may also enjoy the animal area, although the experience depends on the children's heights, the animals available for viewing, and the weather.
On the other hand, Mongo Land may not be the right choice if you're interested only in untouched natural landscapes and don't care about rides or staged photo settings. The yurts and other structures are designed for sightseeing and photography. Mongo Land is not an inhabited traditional Mongolian village where visitors can study everyday local life.
It also isn't a large theme park with dozens of modern rides. A standard ticket generally provides one Go-Kart ride, while the slides depend on weather and queue lengths.
For a two-hour visit, the most practical order is rainbow tubing first, Go-Karts or archery second, then the animal area and grassland photography. Families with younger children should reverse that order, starting with the animals and choosing only rides suitable for their children.
After leaving Mongo Land, Thuy Thuan Tourist Area along the same Ta Nung route makes an easy stop for coffee and a break. Two hours outdoors is plenty for one outing, so there's little point adding another photography attraction just to fill your schedule.
FAQ
What time does Mongo Land Da Lat close?
Mongo Land opens from around 7:00 AM until 5:00 or 6:00 PM. Plan to finish your visit before 5:00 PM, since individual rides may stop earlier. If you're arriving late, call the attraction to confirm admission cut-off times and ride schedules for the day.
How much are Mongo Land Da Lat tickets for children?
In 2026, regular tickets for children between 90 cm and under 1.3 m cost VND 80,000, or VND 90,000 with a drink. Children under 90 cm receive free general admission. Check the displayed ticket price before purchasing.
Does Mongo Land Da Lat have Capybaras?
Yes. Capybaras are among the animals at Mongo Land. However, viewing, feeding, or interacting with them depends on the animals' availability and the park's operating arrangements on the day.
What can children do at Mongo Land Da Lat?
Children can visit the animal area, see sheep, rabbits, and Capybaras, and take photos around the grassland and Mongolian-style tents. Grass sliding, tubing, archery, and Go-Karting have separate participation requirements, so parents should check with staff first.
Are two hours enough for Mongo Land Da Lat?
Yes. Two hours is enough for one or two active attractions, an animal-area visit, and photos at the main locations. If you want to rent costumes, style your hair, take extensive photos, or repeat several activities, allow 2.5-3 hours.
