Experience from Uyen Trinh, a 9X girl who moved here because she loves Da Lat, said that spring and summer are easy to have beautiful clouds. Because autumn often rains a lot, and winter is windy, easy to blow clouds away. To know if it’s cloudy early in the morning, you need to pay attention to the weather. If it is sunny in the morning, rainy in the afternoon, or in the evening with thick dew, leaves and flowers are wet with dew, the next morning there are usually thick and beautiful clouds. Because the time to hunt clouds is quite early, 4-5am, you need to pay attention to keep warm, wear a jacket to avoid dew. In addition, if the road to hunt clouds requires walking or climbing, it is necessary to prepare suitable shoes.
