Crazy House – Da Lat, Vietnam

Wild, strange, and unique. We can describe The Crazy House (also known as Hang Nga Guesthouse) in Dalat in various ways. One thing is sure: this “mad” complex is impressive.

The general architecture of the structure is on a huge tree, with sculpted design components symbolizing natural forms such as animals, spider webs, mushrooms, and caves. According to Nga, the building’s design was inspired by Catalan architect Antoni Gaud. Since its construction in 1990, the structure has developed a credit for its unusual architecture, featured in various guidebooks, and named one of the world’s ten most “bizarre” structures. Visiting Crazy House is like traveling among gigantic tree trunks on narrow meandering trails. You have no idea where these branches will take you.
