To sum up, Lam Dong Province (Tỉnh Lâm Đồng) has delicious food that tourists should enjoy whenever come there. It is fruit jam. There are varieties fruit to make jam like strawberry, coconut, apple or yam. Each jam will have a different color and flavor which depends on the ingredients. Besides that, there are some jams which are made from flowers like rose. In my opinion all of jam is really luscious. The lunar new year is coming, so coming quickly to Da Lat’s market to take the best jam.
