A forested valley on the road from Dalat to Ta Nung, usually simply referred to as Ta Nung, is a wonderful little spot. This is probably the best place to find Grey-crowned Crocias along with a host of other local specialities such as Indochinese Green Magpie, Black-hooded, White-cheeked and Orange-breasted Laughingthrushes and the local forms of Blue-winged Minla, Rufous-backed Sibia and Black-throated Sunbird.

Ho Tuyen Lam is a man-made lake just a few kilometres from the centre of Dalat at the far end of which are areas of remnant montane evergreen forest. Yellow-billed Nuthatch, Black-hooded and White-cheeked Laughingthrush, Grey-crowned Crocias and Vietnamese Greenfinch are among the local specialities to be found here.
